Falls under the umbrella

Hello all,

What does "falls under the umbrella" mean?

I feel it's something like to be under the power of something else. Doesn't it?

Nematode.net (accessed via http://www.nematode.net) is one of a collection of two databases that falls under the Helminth.net umbrella


thank you.

  • It's just about grouping things together under a broad connecting 'umbrella' that covers all things of that type.
