Corticata ("one with a cortex"), in the classification of eukaryotes (living organisms with a cell nucleus), is a clade suggested by Cavalier-Smith[1] to encompass the eukaryote supergroups of the following two groups:

It can also be described as all Bikonts that are not Excavates or Rhizaria.

Corticata as originally defined is probably not a clade (that is, containing all organisms descended from a common ancestor, and no others).[3] It has been redefined to include Rhizaria.[4][5]
