Reptilia \Rep*til"i*a\ (r?p-t?l"?-?), n.pl. [NL.] (Zo["o]l.)
   A class of air-breathing oviparous vertebrates, usually
   covered with scales or bony plates. The heart generally has
   two auricles and one ventricle. The development of the young
   is the same as that of birds.

   Note: It is nearly related in many respects to Aves, or
         birds. The principal existing orders are Testidunata or
         Chelonia (turtles), Crocodilia, Lacertilla (lizards),
         Ophidia (serpents), and Rhynchocephala; the chief
         extinct orders are Dinosauria, Theremorpha, Mosasauria,
         Pterosauria, Plesiosauria, Ichtyosauria.
