Sauropsida (Greek for "lizard faces") is a clade of amniotes, broadly equivalent to the class Reptilia, though typically used in a broader sense to also include extinct stem-group relatives of modern reptiles and birds (which, as theropod dinosaurs, are nested within reptiles as more closely related to crocodilians than to lizards or turtles).

Sauropsida is a group of amniotes that includes all existing reptiles and birds and their fossil ancestors. Sauropsida is distinguished from Synapsida, which...

Sauropsida ("gušterska lica") je taksonomski kladus koja se sastoji od gmizavaca, ptica i izumrlih Parareptilia. Svi živi sauropsidi su članovi paraslikatske podgrupe Diapsida, koji su izumrli prije 200 miliona godina. Termin je nastao 1864.
Sauropoda (/ sɔːˈrɒpədə /), whose members are known as sauropods (/ ˈsɔːrəpɒdz /; [1][2] from sauro- + -pod, ' lizard -footed'), is a clade of saurischian ('lizard-hipped') dinosaurs. Sauropods had very long necks, long tails, small heads (relative to the rest of their body), and four thick, pillar-like legs.
Sauropsida ('lizard faces') is a group of amniotes that includes all existing birds and reptiles as well as their fossil ancestors and other extinct relatives. Large land animals are either in this group or in its sister group, Synapsida, which includes mammals and their fossil relatives.
Sauria is the clade of diapsids containing the most recent common ancestor of Archosauria (which includes crocodilians and birds) and Lepidosauria (which includes squamates and the tuatara), and all its descendants. [1]

Sauropsids are a group of land vertebrates which includes all existing reptiles and birds and their fossil ancestors. They are one of the two groups which evolved from egg-laying amniotes in the first part of the Carboniferous period. [1][2][3] The synapsids are the other group which evolved from amniotes.
