Cladhexea is a recently created placozoan order comprising yet-undescribed species.
Named in 2022, it is believed to be sister to Hoilungea, and corresponds to Clade VI of the literature.
[1] The name comes from Ancient Greek kládos (clade) and hexa (six), referring to its specimens previously being assigned to placozoan Clade VI in literature.
