Skull of Paleothyris

Protorothyrididae is an extinct proposed family of small, lizard-like reptiliomorphs traditionally thought to be early members of "Eureptilia". Their skulls did not have the fenestrae seen in the more derived diapsids. Protorothyridids lived from the late Carboniferous to early Permian periods, in what is now North America.[1][2][3][4]

Many genera of primitive reptiles were thought to be protorothyridids. Brouffia, Coelostegus, Paleothyris and Hylonomus, for example, were found to be more basal "eureptiles" in Muller and Reisz (2006), making the family as historically defined paraphyletic, though three genera, Protorothyris, Anthracodromeus, and Cephalerpeton, were recovered as a monophyletic group.[5] Anthracodromeus, Paleothyris, and Protorothyris were recovered as a monophyletic group in Ford and Benson (2020) (who did not sample Cephalerpeton), who recovered them as more derived than captorhinids and Hylonomus, but less so than araeoscelidians.[6] Anthracodromeus is the earliest known reptile to display adaptations to climbing.[7] The majority of phylogenetic studies recover protorothyridids as basal members of "Eureptilia" or otherwise early reptiles;[8] however, some phylogenetic studies such as those of Simões et al. (2022) and Jenkins et al. (2025) recover them as stem-amniotes instead.[9][10]
