I have been browsing anything relating to Pentastomida taxonomy since the only DNA-based one from 2004 (Lavrov & al.) and couldn't find a single one that dissents. The "question" of this view mentioned in the lede seems to be based on a general zoology treatise from 2009; as they usually are, this seems to be based on outdated sources. I am rectifying based on that, but I am not a crustacean specialist. complainer 13:40, 21 September 2022 (UTC) reply
