Bikonta

(Redirected from Biciliata)
Peridinea (cladus Chromalveolata)

Taxonavigation

edit

Superregnum: Eukaryota
Supergroup: Bikonta
Cladi: Archaeplastida – Chromalveolata – Excavata – Rhizaria

Phyla(?) incertae sedis: Apusozoa – Heliozoa – Chromista – Telonemea

Note: List of cladi after Cavalier-Smith 2009: 28, Bikonts comprise three or four major groups, probably all clades: Apusozoa, probably the first diverging, Excavata, probably next diverging, Rhizaria, and corticates
