Since Panarthapod claws are always on their legs couldn't the first two characterists be combined into have legs with distal claws? Eluchil404 13:41, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Claws

What does this article mean by "claw"? The term may refer to: a) curved hooklike appendage at the end of a limb or b) a grasping appendage consisting of two fingerlike projections at the end of the limb. In tardigrades, for instance, the claws are basically hooks, while in most arthropods, grasping appendages are referred to as claws, and the curved outgrowths are called hooks. Can anyone confirm this? --Crustaceanguy(t/co/cw) 02:08, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Clearification needed

This article lists lobopodia ans a contained extinct taxon. But the Lobopodia article mentiones this as a paraphyletic group containing the recent taxa onychophora and tardigrada. See discussion for lobopodia, too.

Do Panathropoda contain Lobopodia (and Arthropoda) or do Lobopodia contain Panarthropoda?

Could anyone please clearify this? Thanks in advance Ernsts (talk) 18:14, 22 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

After reading the articles for Arthropoda, Onychopora and Tardigrada, one would think of a diagram like this:

Panarthropoda

- Phylum Arthropoda
- Lobopodia (rest of the taxon Panarthropoda)
  + Phylum Onychopora
  + Phylum Tardigrada

In this diagram, Lobopodia is not a phylum.

This is of course without respect to the evolution direction.

Why I choose to ignore the articles at Panarthropoda and Lobopodia is that these article are self-contradictory. The template should probably be adjusted in this way. 117.0.169.145 (talk) 11:34, 15 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
