Parareptilia
Should we be using this instead of Parareptilia? Are they the same thing? This article suggests Anapsida is out: Is there a discussion of which to use? thanks, ErikHaugen (talk) 07:17, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

Anapsida is recognised as a paraphyletic group, and should not be anchored in Sauropsida. Sauropsida encompass only the critters after the synapsid/saurapsid spilt, while anapsida encompass amniotes from before the split as well. Petter Bøckman (talk) 09:09, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
