Abstract: Due to qualitative similarities in the compositions and spectra of extrasolar giant planets (EGPs) within several broad temperature ranges, EGPs fall naturally into groups or "composition classes." Such a classification scheme, however preliminary, brings a degree of order to the rich variety of EGP systems known to exist today.
