Siderolamprus
Siderolamprus is a genus of lizard in the family Diploglossidae. They are found throughout much of Central America. They are considered the only members of the subfamily Siderolamprinae, although Diploglossus bilobatus is sometimes reclassified into the monotypic genus Mesoamericus and placed with them.[1][2]

All species in this genus were previously classified in either Celestus or Diploglossus until a 2021 study found members of both groups to form a distinct grouping from any other diploglossid lizards. The genus Siderolamprus was revived for these species.[2]
