Template:Edit semi-protected Recommend reviewing and editing the section about darker skin color being useful for rejection of UV light rays. Most lizards the darker color shift goes from a greenish to a brownish, which indicates reflection of predominantly red light, which would be more at the infrared or thermal end of the visible spectrum. In other cases, just a general darkening of the skin, to black for example, would indicate that less light of any visible wavelength is being reflected, and therefore more is being absorbed, which would heat the lizard.

So, I recommend review of that section associating darker skin with thermal regulation, which may be correct, but attributing that to ultraviolet (UV) rays seems unsupported. 72.15.91.119 (talk) 16:42, 18 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Why are snakes included in the "Cladistically included but traditionally excluded taxa"

The term Lizard is for any squamate reptile specifically EXCLUDING snakes. Why is it listed. Xenomire (talk) 13:26, 30 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

What that clumsy phrase was trying to say is that snakes are cladistically included in Squamata but not considered lizards. But it doesn't make sense to state this in a taxobox for lizards. I've changed the header to "Squamates that are not considered lizards" to make it clearer.  —  Jts1882 | talk  14:07, 30 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
If thats the case then remove Mosasauroidea from the list because they are actually cladistical lizards. Xenomire (talk) 19:02, 12 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
