The scope of the list is from phylum-rank names down to family-rank names (including subfamilies and tribes). The aim is to stabilize authorship (e.g., Author, year) of names in the higher classification of Onychophora and Myriapoda. Taxonomic ranks are included for providing context and guidance, but this list is not meant to support any hypothesis of classification.
