the placement of hexapoda in onezoom is outdated.

A recent studie has placed the hexapoda within the decapoda.

Oh, neat. We get all of pancrustacea from OpenTree (see

OpenTree v6 onwards has a slighly improved phylogenetic structure for pancrustacea (including insects), so we simply take this from the OpenTree.
), so this is an OpenTree issue.

As is so often the case, the authors of that study do not appear to have made their trees available in a machine-readable format (even in the supplementary material), so the original poster of this issue would have to hand-code the correct tree to input it into the OpenTree study curator. Do you want to ask them to do that?

The cladogram on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crustacean quotes that same study, so if that's the correct tree, wikipedia effectively makes it machine-readable.

I suspect the wikipedia tree is a simplified summary of the tree in the actual study. Opentree will almost certainly want the original, which has about 20-30 tips, IDed down to the species level.

Ideally it would also have the branch lengths in the original study too (could be dates or molecular distance)
