If you do not mind me asking, how many "nails" are there? I do remember one of the many squamata clades having snakes and mosasaurs together, but then with a "?" in another. What other papers would you suggest reading?

I have also heard that some genetic data has snakes closest to Lacertiforms.... I need to find that source though...
