Six nuclear and mitochondrial markers across a 70-species sample test elopomorph relationships and classification. Marker conflict and incomplete sampling are retained; the study does not set the clade's fossil range or global origin. This navigation entry is not a phylogeny or a complete taxon dossier.

The 2024 clock analysis estimated crown Elopomorpha between 239.12 and 213.05 Ma; this is a calibrated divergence interval, not a fossil FAD or exact taxon duration.

Known limits
A missing branch or fossil occurrence does not imply biological absence. Internal nodes are not calibrated divergence estimates.
