Concept

• The term "reptile" refers to any animal that belongs to the paraphyletic class Reptilia (/rptli/ rep-TIL-ee), which includes all sauropsids other than birds. Turtles, crocodilians, squamates (lizards and snakes), and rhynchocephalians are examples of living reptiles (tuatara). About 11,700 species are represented in the Reptile Database as of March 2022. Birds are regarded as belonging to a different class than reptiles in the conventional Linnaean categorization scheme. The name "Reptilia" has been redefined as a clade in modern cladistic classification systems, which include birds inside the group since crocodilians are more closely related to birds than they are to other extant reptiles.

• Other cladistic definitions do away entirely with the term "reptile" in favour of the term "amniote," which is used to describe all amniotes that are more closely related to contemporary reptiles than to mammals. Herpetology is the study of conventional reptile orders in conjunction with contemporary amphibians.

So Maximum diversity of reptiles was during Cretaceous
