Mosasaur picture
This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
Hi! The mosasaur picture used on the Lizard page: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Prognathodon3.jpg is outdated. It's known many mosasaurs had a bilobed tail. Prognathodon, the mosasaur in the picture is one known to definitely have a bilobed tail thanks to a fossil of it showing the tail fins. Could someone please change the mosasaur picture on the Lizard page to an up to date picture? Good choices could be this one of Prognathodon: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Prognathodon_saturator_DB.jpg or this one of Platecarpus: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Platecarpus2010.jpg 90.201.190.75 (talk) 15:43, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

Types of Lizards
While this may vary based on interpretation, the major groups/ families of lizards are the Diploglossa, Gekkota, Iguania, Platynota, and Scincomorpha. Diploglossa's are typically knob scaled and American legless lizards. Gekkotas are gekkos, blind, and legless lizards. Iguania's consist of iguanas, agamas, anoles, chameleons, and they are earless lizards. Scincomorpha's are known as night lizards. Most lizards have four legs, but some only have two, and very few are completely legless. There are also only two types of venomous lizards, and those are the gila monsters (platynota lizards) and the Mexican beaded lizard. Within these groups/families of lizards, there are many other types of lizards. <ref>http://www.factzoo.com/reptiles/types-of-lizards.html/ref> — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marinaa123 (talk • contribs) 23:30, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
