- Studies based on 146 genes in 28 species ([[Delsuc et al., 2006|biblio/16495997]]),
on 798 genes in 28 species ([[Kocot and coll., 2018|biblio/29330139]]),
- and 258 orthologous proteins from 63 species ([[Delsuc et al., 2018|biblio/29653534]])
- show that Oikopleuridae is sister to all other tunicates.

pool. We ignore whether and how Oikopleura dioica is subdivided into multiple
