Eureptilia

["Ken Kinman" <kinman@hotmail.com>]

Mike,
    I think Laurin and Reisz introduced the name Eureptilia (see Arizona 
Tree of Life which should cite the paper).
    I don't recall the exact definitions of either Romeriida or Eureptilia, 
but at the present time I think their membership is the same (or almost so).
    If turtles turn out to be diapsids, I would guess their inclusion would 
make either Romeriida or Eureptilia more acceptable than the other for the 
new clade, or perhaps someone will come up with yet another new name.
                         -----Ken Kinman
