Chordates consist of three distinct animal groups: cephalochor-dates, urochordates (tunicates) and vertebrates. This review starts with a brief description of how the Phylum Chordata and its three subphyla were orig-inally defined, and then discusses how we should reclassify the major chordate groups. 2.

chordates have established themselves as one of the major animal phyla, with dominance of the water, land, and air.
