 Comments
       
  Comment: Brusca & Brusca (2002) note that "Entognatha may be an artificial group," and it appears likely that Protura, Diplura and Collembola will all be treated as classes alongside Insecta. This will be considered as part of an examination of the overall higher level classification in ITIS
