描述了以下属的鼻部结构。长龙、Phyllodactylus、Gerrhonotus、Anniella、cnemidophhorus、euumeces、Xantusia、Uma、Sceloporus、Calisaurus、Uta、Phryhosoma、Anolis双龙、Sauromalus、栉龙、Crotaphytus和鬣蜥。在北美鬣蜥科中，有三种类型的鼻结构，分别是乌玛型、梁龙型和Anolis型。乌玛型是最专门的干旱习性，代表了一种进化适应，以适应随着干燥环境的入侵而加剧的净化空气的问题，并采用了埋在土壤中的习惯。粘液分泌上皮范围的限制可能与干燥环境中的水分保存有关，鼻腔前庭发育在很大程度上负责净化吸入的空气。指出了爬行动物的鼻子在吸入空气的温度调节中的作用。
Nasal structure in the following genera is descr. Coleonyx, Phyllodactylus, Gerrhonotus, Anniella, Cnemidophorus, Eumeces, Xantusia, Uma, Sceloporus, Calisaurus, Uta, Phryhosoma, Anolis Dipsosaurus, Sauromalus, Ctenosaura, Crotaphytus, and Iguana. Among N. American Iguanidae there are 3 types of nasal structure designated as the Uma, Dipsosaurus, and Anolis types. The Uma type is the most specialized for xeric habits, and represents one type of evolutionary adaptation to intensification of the problem of cleansing of the inspired air accompanying invasion of dry environments and adoption of the habit of burying in the soil. Restriction in extent of mucus-secreting epithelium may be related to water conservation in dry environments, cleansing of the inspired air being cared for to a considerable extent by the vestibular development of the nose. The function of the reptilian nose in thermoregulation of the inspired air is pointed out.
