I believe this is called a Layer Group.

You can create a layer group,
by right-clicking on a layer,
and selecting New Layer Group.
Then move the layers you wish to group together into this new layer group.
You can also create a layer group,
by clicking on the Create a new layer group button at the bottom of the layer dialog.
Or through Layer > New Layer Group.

You can find out more about layer groups,
following the link below.

The top layer (AC_group) isn't really a layer, it is a "group" and the preview shows the result of the composition of all the "sub" layers
