Molecular phylogenetic analyses support the monophyly of Hexapoda and suggest the paraphyly of Entognatha. [PDF]
BackgroundMolecular phylogenetic analyses have revealed that Hexapoda and Crustacea form a common clade (the Pancrustacea), which is now widely accepted among zoologists; however, the origin of Hexapoda remains unresolved.
