Pancryptista

Summary

Pancryptista is a clade that includes the Cryptista as well as the Endohelea. Phylogenomic analyses from 2022 suggest the Microheliella is sister to the Cryptista, forming the clade called Pancryptista, which would be sister to the Archaeplastida, forming the CAM clade. Tetrahelia is the sister of Microheliella. Pancryptista is synonymous with the Cryptista name used by Cavalier-Smith in 2022.
