Hacrobia

 
Wikipedia: Hacrobia

The Cryptomonads-haptophytes assemblage is a monophyletic grouping[1] of chromalveolata that are not included in the SAR supergroup.

It includes:

In the past, heterokonts, haptophytes, and cryptomonads have been sometimes grouped together in a group known as chromist.[2] Though the heterokonts are now split out, Cryptophyta and Haptophyta are considered to be closely related[3] (and are sometimes simply referred to as the "Cryptophyta+Haptophyta" group.)[4] A 2009 paper also suggests that the Telonemia and centrohelids may form a clade with the cryptophytes and haptophytes.[5] The picobiliphytes may belong in this group but are too poorly known to be classified with confidence.[6]

The term "Hacrobia" has been proposed for this group.[6] The "Ha-" refers to haptophyta, the "-cr-" refers to cryptomonads, and the "-bia" is a general suffix referring to life.
