List of animal classes
editThe following is a list of the classes in each phylum of the kingdom Animalia. There are 74+ classes of animals in 32 phyla in this list. The internal classification of many small phyla usually lacks the class rank. The taxonomy of Annelida and Platyhelminthes is still evolving from older gradistic classifications to a system with monophyletic classes.
Gnathostomulida, Micrognathozoa, Rotifera and Acanthocephala may also be classified as a single phylum[12]; Chaetognatha might be included in clade Gnathifera[13]:
- Phylum Gnathifera
- Class Gnathostomulida
- Class Micrognathozoa
- [?Class Chaetognatha]

editList of extant chordate orders
editThis second list contains a list of all of the living classes and orders that are located in the Phylum Chordata.
The tunicate "Class Ascidiacea" as traditionally defined is paraphyletic. This may be solved by including the Thaliacea in Ascidiacea.[14] The 'orders' Phlebobranchia and Aplousobranchia may form a monophyletic group together.[15]
Some authors divide Chondrichthyes, Actinopterygii, and/or Sauropsida into two or more classes.[10][16][17][18][19][20]

Definitions of Aves
edit- "The most inclusive clade containing Vultur gryphus but not Crocodylus niloticus" (adapted[30] from Patterson, 1993[31]). Alternative names: Avemetatarsalia, Panaves[30].
- "The clade stemming from the first panavian with feathers homologous (synapomorphic) with those of of Vultur gryphus" (adapted[30] from Ji & Ji, 1996[32]: "Because Sinosauropteryx has extremely short and primitive feathers, it is undoubtedly a member of the class Aves"; and Lee and Spencer, 1997[33]). Alternative names: Avifilopluma[30], Ornithodira[34].
- The most inclusive dinosaur clade containing Vultur gryphus but not Sauropodomorpha, Ornithischia and Euparkeria capensis (adapted from Thulborn, 1975[35]: "A new classification of archosaurs and birds is presented, wherein the theropod ancestors of birds are transferred to the class Aves"). Alternative name: Theropoda[30].
- The clade of dinosaurs possessing "feathers with fully modern anatomy" (Martyniuk, 2012[36]). Alternative name: Aviremigia[36], Pennaraptora[37]?
- The clade stemming from the last common ancestor of Archaeopteryx lithographica and Vultur gryphus (adapted from Padian & Chiappe, 1998[38],[39]; Livezey & Zusi, 2007[40]). Alternative name: Ornithes[36]. Criticism: "The traditional division between herpetological (“pre-Archaeopteryx”) and ornithological (“post-Archaeopteryx”) parts of the avian evolution should be abandoned, as it is fundamentally misleading [...] the internode represented by the last common ancestor of Archaeopteryx and birds (node that is often used to identifiy the "ancestral bird") does not show any significant divergence in mosphospace ocupation, compared to the adjacent nodes along the [avian stem lineage]. Its historical meaning aside, once analysed using a large-scale morphological and taxonomic sampling, Archaeopteryx does not mark any peculiar evolutionary shift toward the origin of modern birds or the evolution of flight." (Cau, 2018[41])
- "The clade stemming from the first panavian with feathered wings homologous (synapomorphic) with those of Vultur gryphus and used for powered flight" (adapted[30] from Ji & Ji, 2001[42]). Alternative name: Avialae[30] (only Gauthier defines Avialae this way. Most other authors use a branch-based definition[43]).
- The least inclusive group containing Enantiornithes and Neornithes (adapted from Thulborn, 1984[44] and Paul, 1988). Alternative names: Ornithothoraces, Carinatae[30].
- "The crown clade stemming from the most recent common ancestor of Struthio camelus, Tinamus major and Vultur gryphus" (Gauthier, 1986[45]; from Gauthier & De Queiroz, 2001[30]). Alternative name: Neornithes. Criticism: "adopting a crown-clade approach does not increase taxonomic stability. Indeed, because the boundaries of traditional more inclusive clades are usually defined on anatomical features or morphological gaps perceived (rightly or wrongly) to be significant, such clades would probably tend to be more highly corroborated than crown-clade" (Lee & Spencer, 1997[33])
