Scientific classification
Domain: Eukarya
(unranked): Excavata
(unranked): Discicristata
Phyla

Discicristata is a proposed eukaryotic clade.

It consists of Euglenozoa plus Percolozoa.[1]

It was proposed that Discicristata plus Cercozoa yielded Cabozoa.[2] Another proposal is to group Discicristata with Jakobida into Discoba superphylum.[3]
