	Roberto Donoso-Barros Roberto Donoso-Barros (October 5, 1921 – August 2, 1975) was a Chilean botanist, naturalist, and herpetologist. Early life and education Donoso-Barros was born in Santiago, Chile. He attended the University of Chile in Santiago, earning his M.D. from the school in 1947. Career Donoso-Barros joined the faculty of the University of Chile in 1954. In 1965, he became a professor at the University of Concepción. He also worked at the Universidad de Oriente in Venezuela, and at the Smithsonian Institution in the United States. Donoso-Barros was a prolific herpetological authority in Chile. In 1966, he published ''Reptiles de Chile'' which collected and reported on all lizard species described to date in Chile. Species described by Donoso-Barros include: * '' Garthia penai'' (Donoso-Barros, 1966) * ''Liolaemus brattstroemi'' Donoso-Barros, 1961 – synonym of '' Liolaemus pictus'' * ''Liolaemus ceii'' Donoso-Barros, 1971 – synonym of '' Liolaemus kriegi'' * '' Liolaemus co ...

picture info	Reptiles Described In 1961 Reptiles, as most commonly defined are the animals in the class Reptilia ( ), a paraphyletic grouping comprising all sauropsids except birds. Living reptiles comprise turtles, crocodilians, squamates (lizards and snakes) and rhynchocephalians (tuatara). As of March 2022, the Reptile Database includes about 11,700 species. In the traditional Linnaean classification system, birds are considered a separate class to reptiles. However, crocodilians are more closely related to birds than they are to other living reptiles, and so modern cladistic classification systems include birds within Reptilia, redefining the term as a clade. Other cladistic definitions abandon the term reptile altogether in favor of the clade Sauropsida, which refers to all amniotes more closely related to modern reptiles than to mammals. The study of the traditional reptile orders, historically combined with that of modern amphibians, is called herpetology. The earliest known proto-reptiles originated around 31 ...
