CIDE DICTIONARY
lacertilia, n. pl. [NL., fr. L. lacertus a lizard.].
An order of Reptilia, which includes the lizards. [1913 Webster]
" They are closely related to the snakes, and like the latter, usually have the body covered with scales or granules. They usually have eyelids, and most of then have well-formed legs; but in some groups (amphisbæna, glass-snake, etc.) the legs are absent and the body is serpentlike. None are venomous, unless Heloderma be an exception. The order includes the chameleons, the Cionocrania , or typical lizards, and the amphisbænas. See Amphisbæna , Gecko , Gila monster , and Lizard ."
[1913 Webster]
