The taxonomy used here is the predominate view amongst entomology systematists (as seen on the ToL website). These are tentative groupings, but they are generally held to be the consensus opinion. The italics used for some of the higher-level Holometabola are clearly not used to indicate a generic rank, but merely the most visually pleasing way I could think of to show their position in the group.

The previously used taxonomy on this page was woefully inadequate and even inaccurate (e.g. Dictyoptera). Please do not revert back to it again without first discussing reasons for doing so.
