Unverified
Taxonomic remark Treated as a subclass of Reptilia in Ruggiero et al., 2015; Catalogue of Life, 2021 maintains as class but deprecates Reptilia at class level, raising the latter's component extant orders i.e. Crocodylia, Sphenodontia, Squamata and Testudines to separate classes. [details]
