Despite their superficial resemblance, the Draconimorpha are not particularly closely related to any other clade of modern reptiles. They are in fact, members of the Parareptilia, a subclass of Reptilia which also includes the now extinct Pareiasaurs among others, and are quite distinct from the more familiar Eureptilia, which includes the lepidosaurs (tuataras, lizards & snakes), archosaurs (crocodiles & birds) and the testudines (turtles and tortoises).

Please note- this wiki is based mostly off the books "Dragonology", supposedly written by Dr Ernest Drake and edited by Dugald Steer. In his afterword, Dr. Drake reveals that one of the crucial goals of dragonologists is to preserve the magnificent creatures of their study wherever possible - a goal this tongue-in-cheek volume most affectionately achieves.
