Short description: Type of plant

Corticata ("one with a cortex"), in the classification of eukaryotes (living organisms with a cell nucleus), is a clade suggested by Thomas Cavalier-SmithCite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag or Archaeplastida (plants, red algae, green algae, and glaucophytes)

Chromalveolata (a group including kelp, water moulds, ciliates, dinoflagellates, and other organisms)

Cavalier-Smith currently includes Rhizaria as well, resulting in an equivalency to Diaphoretickes.^[1]^[2]^[3]
