The Hexanauplia is a clade proposed by Oakley et al. (2013) that constitutes a class of crustaceans, comprising the Copepoda and Thecostraca.[1][2] A number of recent phylogenomic studies have not found support for this clade,[3][4][5] with some supporting the alternative clade of Communostraca comprising Thecostraca and Malacostraca.[4][5]

Classification
