 Based on Brink's analysis of skull and lower jaw features in 1963, "Bauria" is a therapsid sufficiently different from "Scaloposaurus" and its allies to warrant distinction at the infraorder level.It was suggested that a suborder be recognized level with Gorgonopsia, Therocephalia, Cynodontia and Ictidosauria and that this suborder be called Scaloposauria.The suborder Scaloposauria should be divided into two infraorders, the earlier Ictodosuchoidea and the later Bauriamorpha, a natural branch separate from the suborder Cynodontia.
