Detailed description

Die Doppelschleichen (Amphisbaenia: Herkunft ἡ ἀμφίσβαιυ·α), auch Ringelschleichen, Wurmschleichen oder Ringelechsen genannt, sind eine Gruppe eigenartiger, an Regenwürmer erinnernde Schuppenkriechtiere (Squamata). Sie haben ihren Namen von Amphisbaena, einer mythischen Schlange mit einem Kopf an jedem Ende. Er bezieht sich darauf, dass bei den Tieren manchmal auf den ersten Blick nicht zu erkennen ist, an welchem Körperende sich der Kopf befindet. Früher wurden sie als Familie zu den Echsen (Lacertilia) gezählt, aber ihre anatomischen Besonderheiten und ihre lange eigenständige Evolution führte dazu, dass sie den Rang einer Unterordnung bekamen.
