Anniealexandria is an extinct genus of amphisbaenian lizard known by the type species Anniealexandria gansi from the earliest Eocene of Wyoming. Anniealexandria is the only known member of the family Bipedidae in the fossil record, which otherwise only includes the extant genus Bipes from Mexico. It was named in 2009 in honor of Annie Montague Alexander, founder of the University of California Museum of Paleontology. Remains of Anniealexandria are known only from a single fossil locality in the Bighorn Basin called Castle Gardens, but within the locality its fossils are common in the Willwood Formation, usually consisting of isolated jaw bones and vertebrae. Anniealexandria seems to have been a common component of a paleofauna that included fifteen other lizard species and existed in weste

dbo:abstract
  • Anniealexandria is an extinct genus of amphisbaenian lizard known by the type species Anniealexandria gansi from the earliest Eocene of Wyoming. Anniealexandria is the only known member of the family Bipedidae in the fossil record, which otherwise only includes the extant genus Bipes from Mexico. It was named in 2009 in honor of Annie Montague Alexander, founder of the University of California Museum of Paleontology. Remains of Anniealexandria are known only from a single fossil locality in the Bighorn Basin called Castle Gardens, but within the locality its fossils are common in the Willwood Formation, usually consisting of isolated jaw bones and vertebrae. Anniealexandria seems to have been a common component of a paleofauna that included fifteen other lizard species and existed in western North America during a period of global warming in the latest Paleocene and earliest Eocene. Below is a cladogram from Longrich et al. (2015) showing the phylogenetic relationships of Anniealexandria: (en)
  • Anniealexandria es un género extinto de lagarto anfisbenio del cual solo se conoce la especie tipo Anniealexandria gansi, la cual se ha hallado en rocas del Eoceno en Wyoming, Estados Unidos. Anniealexandria es el único miembro conocido de la familia Bipedidae en el registro fósil, puesto que el otro género conocido de la familia es el actual Bipes que se distribuye en México.​ Fue nombrado en 2009 en honor de Annie Montague Alexander, fundadora del Museo de Paleontología de la Universidad de California. Los restos de Anniealexandria son conocidos de una única localidad fósil situada en la llamada Castle Gardens, y dentro de la localidad sus fósiles son comunes en la , usualmente consistentes en huesos aislados de mandíbulas y vértebras. Anniealexandria parece haber sido un componente común de una paleofauna que incluía a otras quince especies de lagartos y que perduró en el oeste de América del Norte durante un período de calentamiento global entre finales del Paleoceno e inicios del Eoceno.​ A continuación se muestra un cladograma basado en el análisis de Longrich et al. (2015), mostrando las relaciones filogenéticas de Anniealexandria:​ (es)
