Fig. 19 in A Complete Late Cretaceous Iguanian (Squamata, Reptilia) from the Gobi and Identification of a New Iguanian Clade

Fig. 19. Temporally calibrated cladogram showing the phylogenetic hypothesis generated by the current study. Note that many terminal taxa in this cladogram (Scincogekkonomorpha, Acrodonta, 'priscagamines', Hoplocercidae, Polychrotidae, and Tropiduridae) were subdivided for the actual cladistic analysis performed in this study (see appendix 1). Taxonomic intervals are approximate and derived primarily from Estes (1983), but supplemented by Norell and de Queiroz (1991), Evans (1994), and Conrad et al. (in press). Timescale adapted from Gradstein et al. (1999). Bremer supports for all displayed iguanian nodes is 1, except the polychrotid-corytophanid clade.

Fig. 13. A, left scapulocoracoid and suprascapula of Saichangurvel davidsoni (IGM 3/858) in dorsal view. Ribs overlie parts of the scapulocoracoid, but these hidden parts are reconstructed in gray; enough of the girdle is visible to confirm the presence of two bars forming the primary (1cf) and secondary (2cf) coracoid emarginations. The suprascapula is show as
