Anguimorpha

Also known as Anguimorph, Anguimorphs

The Anguimorpha is a suborder of squamates. The group was named by Fürbringer in 1900 to include all autarchoglossans closer to Varanus and Anguis than Scincus. These lizards, along with iguanians and snakes, constitute the proposed "venom clade" Toxicofera of all venomous reptiles.

Species

蛇蜥亚目（学名：Anguimorpha）有时分类层级为蛇蜥下目，属于爬行纲有鳞目的一个演化支，包含：蛇蜥科（蛇蜥、無腳蜥蜴）、巨蜥科、滄龍類、以及毒蜥科（希拉毒蜥、連珠蜥蜴）。蛇蜥亚目是由Max Fürbringer在1900年建立，包含Autarchoglossa之中，所有接近巨蜥與蛇蜥，而離石龍子較遠的物種。蛇蜥下目與鬣蜥類、蛇共同組成Toxicofera演化支，是一群具有毒性的爬行動物。[1] 分類本亚目属于有鳞目有毒类，有些学说则将本分类以下目的层级归类于硬舌亚目。本亚目的内部分类如下：蛇蜥亚目 Anguimorpha †Eolacerta robusta †Paravaranus angustifrons Paleoanguimorpha下目厚背下目 Platynota 又名巨蜥下目巨蜥超科（Varanoidae）巨蜥科（Varanidae）婆羅蜥科（Lanthanotidae）鱷蜥類（Shinisauria）鱷蜥科（Shinisauridae）新蛇蜥下目 Neoanguimorpha Monstersauria 毒蜥科（Helodermatidae）複舌下目 Diploglossa 又名蛇蜥下目卡氏蜥類（Carusioidea）異蜥科（Xenosauridae）：如瘤鱗蜥蛇蜥超科（Anguoidea）蛇蜥科（Anguidae）：如蛇蜥蠕蜥科（Anniellidae，又名無足蜥科）：如美洲無足蜥肢蛇蜥科（ Diploglossidae）參考資料 ^ Fry, B.; 等.

== Evolution == The oldest widely accepted member of Anguimorpha is Dorsetisaurus from the Late Jurassic of Europe and North America. In 2022, the genus Cryptovaranoides was described from the latest Triassic (Rhaetian) of England. Cryptovaranoides was recovered in the study as a crown-group anguimorph, and therefore the oldest crown group-squamate, 35 million years older than any previously known crown-group squamate. However, a 2023 study found that Cryptovaranoides most likely represents an archosauromorph that was only distantly related to squamates.
