Diaphoretickes (/ˌdaɪəfəˈrɛtɪkiːz/) is a major group of eukaryotic creatures, with over 400,000 species. The majority of the earth's biomass that carries out photosynthesis belongs to Diaphoretickes.[1]

Diaphoretickes includes:

In 2012 Diaphoretickes received the following phylogenetic definition:

"The most inclusive clade containing Bigelowiella natans Moestrup & Sengco 2001 (Rhizaria), Tetrahymena thermophila Nanney & McCoy 1976 (Alveolata), Thalassiosira pseudonana Cleve 1873 (Stramenopiles), and Arabidopsis thaliana (Linnaeus) Heynhold, 1842 (Archaeplastida), but not Homo sapiens Linnaeus 1758 (Opisthokonta), Dictyostelium discoideum Raper 1935 (Amoebozoa) or Euglena gracilis Klebs 1883 (Excavata). This is a branch-based definition in which all of the specifiers are extant."[2]

Taxonomic history[]

Diaphoretickes was identified by Burki et al. (2008) as the "plants+HC+SAR megagroup".[3] because it included plants (Archaeplastida), haptophytes, cryptomonads, and stramenopiles, alveolates, and rhizarians.

Diaphoretickes has also been referred to as the SAR/HA Supergroup or "Corticata with Rhizaria".[4]

According to this description, it includes most of the species engaging in photosynthesis, except for the Euglenozoa and Cyanobacteria. It includes all Bikonts that are not excavates and Hemimastigophora.

The name "Corticata" comes from Cavalier-Smith's hypothesis about the common origin of the cortical alveoli of glaucophytes and alveolates.[5]

The megagroup was previously described as the sum of Archaeplastida, Rhizaria, and chromalveolates.[6] However, this description is obsolete, largely due to the discovery that chromalveolata is not monophyletic.
