Taxonomic remark Treated as order in Parker, 1982 and the Paleobiology DB (2022 version), however as subclass in Ruggiero et al., 2015 (with extant orders Anguimorpha, Gekkota. Inguania. Lacertoidea, Scincoidea and Serpentes). Catalogue of Life (2021 version) treats as a class within superclass Amniota (class Reptilia has been abandoned and replaced with 4 classes i.e. Crocodylia, Sphenodontia, Squamata and Testudines, alongside separate classes Aves and Mammalia). [details]
