Autobranchia
Taxonomy
Autobranchia was named by Groblen (1894) [not sure, but apparently this is an illegal emendation of Autolamellibranchiata by earlier authors]. It is extant.
It was synonymized subjectively with Autolamellibranchiata by Giribet and Wheeler (2002); it was reranked as the infraclass Autobranchia by Hikuroa and Grant-Mackie (2008); it was reranked as the subclass Autobranchia by Bouchet et al. (2010) and Carter et al. (2011); it was reranked as the unranked clade Autobranchia by Schnetler et al. (2024).
It was assigned to Eubivalvia by Carter et al. (2011); and to Bivalvia by Hikuroa and Grant-Mackie (2008), Nevesskaja (2009), Bouchet et al. (2010) and Schnetler et al. (2024).

If no rank is listed, the taxon is considered an unranked clade in modern classifications. Ranks may be repeated or presented in the wrong order because authors working on different parts of the classification may disagree about how to rank taxa.
