In taxonomy, 'class' has a specific denotation. Arthropoda (the arthropods) is a major division called a phylum. It falls under the animal kingdom (Animalia, or Metazoa) and also falls under other classifications such as Eukaryota, Opisthokonta, Eumetazoa, Bilateria, Protostomia, Ecdysozoa and Panarthropoda.

Below phylum are the subphyla and the classes, of which arthropoda has several, including the Malacostraca class (lobsters, shrimp, etc), the Insecta class (insects), and others.

What class of arthropod is round?

No one arthropod class has members with predominantly round body shapes, particularly since classes are so broad and each usually have so many species. Horseshoe crabs under class Merostomata have a roundish body shape and somewhat hemi-spheroidal (oblate); the barnacles under class Maxillopoda have examples which are noticeably round, but not all. Some water fleas under class Branchopoda can be quite rounded.
