Students will be learning about the evolution/taxonomy of the Squamates The topics covered will be as follows: 1. Shared features of squamates 2. Basal squamates in the fossil record 3. The initial branching lines of the squamates. 4. The evolution of Scincomorpha (this will take several classes, but students can drop in for a particular branch). 5. The evolution of Toxicofera (this is the family that includes snakes, iguanas, monitor lizards and mosasaurs) 6. The evolution of Scleroglossa...
- Students will learn about the basic anatomy of squamates and their evolutionary history.
I have worked at the Smithsonian Natural History Museum for several years in their education department where I have taught about prehistoric life. I have gone on several digs in Montana, Wyoming and South Dakota. Studied paleontology under Philip J. Currie and Thomas R. Holtz.
