The Scotokaryotes (Cavalier-Smith) is a proposed basal Neokaryotes clade as sister of the Diaphoretickes. Basal Scotokaryote groupings are the , the Malawimonas and the Podiata. In this phylogeny the Discoba are sometimes seen as Paraphyly and basal .
An alternative to the Unikont–Bikont division was suggested by Derelle et al. in 2015, where they proposed the Opimoda–Diphoda respectively, as substitutes to the older terms (Opimoda includes the old 'unikonts', plus some former bikonts; Diphoda includes most of the old 'bikonts', but not all). The name Opimoda is formed from the letters (shown in capitals) of opisthokont and amoebozoa. In this phylogeny Discoba belongs to the Diphoda clade.
