Cetancodontamorpha is a total clade of artiodactyls[1] defined, according to Spaulding et al., as Whippomorpha "plus all extinct taxa more closely related to extant members of Whippomorpha than to any other living species".

[2] Attempts have been made to rename the clade Whippomorpha to Cetancodonta, but the former maintains precedent.

[3] Whippomorpha is the crown clade containing Cetacea (whales, dolphins, etc.)

[4] Members of the whippomorph stem group (i.e., "stem-whippomorphs") include such taxa as the family Entelodontidae and the genus Andrewsarchus.
