Researchers with the National Museum of Natural History have discovered a relative to New Zealand’s tuatara that lived more than 150 million years ago. Opisthiamimus gregori is a new reptile species described from several fossilized specimens found in northern Wyoming’s Morrison Formation, USA.
The reptile, which is not a lizard, but rather a rhynchocephalian like the tuatara, lived among dinosaurs such as Stegosaurus and Allosaurus. The rhynchocephalians diverged from their lizard cousins more than 230 million years ago.
