• FINS INTO LIMBS: EVOLUTION, DEVELOPMENT AND TRANSFORMATION (2007, background): “The authors indicate that mosasaurs were ‘‘possibly varanoid lizards’’ (p. 319), but most phylogenies suggest that they are in fact probably closer to snakes than to varanids (Lee and Caldwell, 1998, 2000; Caldwell, 1999:fig.”
• Phylogeny of sex-determining mechanisms in squamate reptiles: are sex chromosomes an evolutionary trap? (2009, background): “Subsequent morphological studies further supported nested position of snakes within Anguimorpha as the sister taxon to varanids or their sister position to anguimorphs (Lee, 1998, 2000; Reynoso, 1998; Lee & Caldwell, 2000).”
• Assembling the Squamate Tree of Life: Perspectives from the Phenotype and the Fossil Record (2012, background): “Caldwell (1999) also arrived at this conclusion early on in his extensive and ongoing studies of mosasaur phylogeny (see also Gauthier 1984), but later abandoned that idea in favor of a snake—mosasaur union inside varanoid anguimorphs (e.g., Lee and Caldwell 2000).”
• Phylogeny And Systematics Of Squamata (Reptilia) Based On Morphology (2008, methodology): “…lato, the Scincidae of most recent authors (Estes et al., 1988; Wu et al., 1996; Evans and Barbadillo, 1998; Lee, 1998, 2000; Caldwell, 1999a, 2000; Lee and Caldwell, 2000; Reynoso and Callison, 2000), is paraphyletic in the current topology with respect to the Dibamidae, Amphisbaenia, and…”
