The Antennopoda (or Arthropoda s.l.) are a proposed clade consisting of the Euarthropoda and the Onychophora, as sister of the Tardigrada, together forming the Panarthropoda.{{Cite journal |last1=Smith |first1=Frank W. |last2=Goldstein |first2=Bob |date=2017-05-01 |title=Segmentation in Tardigrada and diversification of segmental patterns in Panarthropoda |url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1467803916301487 |journal=Arthropod Structure & Development |series=Evolution of Segmentation |language=en |volume=46 |issue=3 |pages=328–340 |doi=10.1016/j.asd.2016.10.005 |pmid=27725256 |issn=1467-8039}}{{Cite journal |last=Ortega-Hernández |first=Javier |date=2014-12-21 |title=Making sense of 'lower' and 'upper' stem-group Euarthropoda, with comments on the strict use of the name Arthropoda von Siebold, 1848: Upper and lower stem-Euarthropoda |url=https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/brv.12168 |journal=Biological Reviews |language=en |volume=91 |issue=1 |pages=255–273 |doi=10.1111/brv.12168|pmid=25528950 |s2cid=7751936 }} Stanleycaris appears to be a basal euarthropod.{{Cite journal |last1=Moysiuk |first1=Joseph |last2=Caron |first2=Jean-Bernard |date=2022-07-08 |title=A three-eyed radiodont with fossilized neuroanatomy informs the origin of the arthropod head and segmentation |url=https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2022.06.027 |journal=Current Biology |volume=32 |issue=15 |pages=3302–3316.e2 |doi=10.1016/j.cub.2022.06.027 |pmid=35809569 |s2cid=250361698 |issn=0960-9822|doi-access=free }}

Antennopoda was defined by De Haro, where Tardigrada was not included in his tree. In a subsequent article of him, his use of Antennopoda was inconsistent with the current usage.{{Cite journal |last=De Haro Vera |first=Andrés |date=1999-01-01 |title=Relaciones filogenéticas entre artrópodos, onicóforos, anélidos y lofoforados |url=http://sea-entomologia.org/PDF/BOLETIN_26/B26-014-161.pdf |journal=Boletín de la SEA |volume=26 |pages=161–169 |issn=1134-6094}} Especially the position of the Tardigrada is disputed, the alternative hypothesis of Tactopoda includes tardigrades and arthropods as the sister group to velvet worms.
