Pancrustacea is the

ommatidia.[4] This name is preferred by some scientists as a means of avoiding confusion with the use of "pan-" to indicate a clade that includes a crown group and all of its stem group representatives.[5]

Molecular studies

A

paraphyletic
with regard to hexapods (that is, that hexapods, including insects, are derived from crustacean ancestors).

The evidence for this clade derives from molecular data and morphological characteristics. The molecular data consists of comparisons of

Regier et al. (2005)

In a 2005 study of nuclear genomes Regier et al. suggest that

Cladogram following Regier et al. (2005).[6]

Regier et al. (2010)

A 2010 study of nuclear genomes (Regier et al.) strongly supports Pancrustacea and strongly favour

Branchiura, Pentastomida), Vericrustacea (Malacostraca, Thecostraca, Copepoda, Branchiopoda), Xenocarida (Cephalocarida, Remipedia) and Hexapoda, with Xenocarida as a sister group to the Hexapoda (comprising "Miracrustacea").[7]

New clades proposed by Regier et al. are:

Of these proposed clades, only Multicrustacea was confirmed in later molecular studies.

Myriapoda

Pancrustacea
Oligostraca

Ostracoda

Ichthyostraca

Branchiura

Pentastomida

Mystacocarida

Altocrustacea

von Reumont et al. (2012)

In a 2012 molecular study, von Reumont et al. challenge the monophyly of Vericrustacea: they present four versions of Pancrustacea cladogram (figures 1–4), and in all four figures

anchialine cave, and ancestors of Hexapoda go to the land.[13]


Jondeung et al. (2012)

Another molecular study (of mitochondrial genomes), conducted in 2012 by Jondeung et al., strongly support monophyletic Pancrustacea and places

Cirripedia + Remipedia as a basal lineage of Pancrustacea.[14]

Oakley et al. (2013)

In 2013 combined study of morphology, including fossils, and molecular data, including expressed sequence tag, mitochondrial genome, nuclear genome, and ribosomal DNA data Oakley et al. obtained support for three pancrustacean clades: Oligostraca (Ostracoda, Mystacocarida, Branchiura, Pentastomida), Multicrustacea (Copepoda, Thecostraca, Malacostraca) and a clade they refer to as Allotriocarida (Branchiopoda, Cephalocarida, Remipedia, Hexapoda), as well as for monophyly of Ostracoda. Within Multicrustacea they obtained support for a clade they suggest the name Hexanauplia: Thecostraca + Copepoda. Relations within Allotriocarida remain uncertain: sister taxon to Hexapoda is either Remipedia, or the clade Branchiopoda + Cephalocarida, however, authors are inclined to the first version (see "Conclusion", 4), which is also consistent with von Reumont et al. (2012) results.[15][13]

New proposed by Oakley et al. clades are:

Note: the Allotriocarida clade was also recovered in 2005 by Regier et al. as Clade #33,[6] but relations within it were different, and they did not choose a name for it.

Rota-Stabelli et al. (2013)

In 2013 Rota-Stabelli et al. used the signal in the 62 protein-coding genes assembled by Regier et al. in 2010 to improve the knowledge of the internal relationship in the Pancrustacea group. This data set infers a highly supported

Copepoda and Hexapoda (group A). Using the best amino acids substitution model, CATGTR, also Cephalocarida falls inside this group. In all the analyses group A (with or without Cephalocarida) is sister-group of a clade composed by Malacostraca, Oligostraca and Thecostraca (group B).[16]

Lozano-Fernandez et al. (2019)

The relationship of Hexapoda and the crustacean classes is shown in the following phylogenetic tree, which shows Allotriocarida, along with Oligostraca and Multicrustacea, as the three main divisions of subphylum Pancrustacea, embracing the traditional crustaceans and the hexapods (including insects).[1]

Position of Tantulocarida

According to Petrunina A.S. and Kolbasov G.A., the sixth subclass of Maxillopoda

Cirripedia (if so, Thecostraca excluding Tantulocarida is paraphyletic):[17][18]
