What are the diffrent types of reptiles?

Answer 1

Oh dear. This is actually a question with an answer in flux; due to the diversity within the traditional class "reptilia," that class has since been, well, abolished. Sort of. By some people. In the classic sense, there were, and always had been, four orders within the historic class: turtles and tortoises, or testudines; reptiles, worm lizards, and snakes, or squamata; crocodiles and alligators, or crocodilia; and sphenodontia, an order with only two species, the tuatara. Technically speaking, there isn't really a fifth "type." However, all dinosaurs are commonly referred to as reptiles, and can therefore be called reptiles in a classroom setting safely. But, there are major classification issues surrounding all of this, since "reptilia" isn't really a class or animal in the first place, even though everybody seems to say it is. However, within the class "sauropsida," though it encompasses many more species, are all four orders previously mentioned, on top of, um, birds, dinosaurs, and their ancestor species the archosaurs. Not very helpful, but the answer itself keeps changing.
