Classification Hexapods are now accepted as derived from within the crustaceans. Pancrustacea and Tetraconata have been proposed as alternative names for this expanded concept of Crustacea. In WoRMS, Crustacea is used as the accepted name, being the oldest, most widely used and best established name [details]
Classification The Crustacea is a paraphyletic group, with the Hexapoda emerging from within the Pancrustacea. WoRMS will continue to recognise Crustacea as a convenient assemblage comprising the non-hexapodan Pancrustacea. [details]
