can be identified as a lizard by having a pleurodont dentition with posterolingual tooth replacement, a short quadrate with a lateral conch, a streptostylic quadrate suspension, a ‘‘hockey stick’’-shaped squamosal, a reduced quadrate-pterygoid contact, an enclosed vidian canal (posterior opening within the basisphenoid), a prootic with an alar process and a prominent crista prootica, and a braincase in which the metotic fissure is subdivided into a small ovoid lateral opening of the recessus scalae tympani and a posterior vagus foramen (differentiating it from archosaurs, where the metotic fissure becomes enclosed, following a totally different development).

differs from all other known lizards in possessing the following unique combination of characters: premaxilla forming exclusively the tip of the rostrum and the anterolateral border of the nares; elongated paired nasals that slot into a triangular frontal recess; no parietal foramen, supratemporal processes angled vertically downward; strongly triradiate postorbital with long squamosal process reaching posterior margin of parietal; very large suborbital fenestra; palatal dentition on the pterygoids—differing from the interpretation in Li et al.,
