Partial homologies between sleep states in lizards, mammals, and birds suggest a complex evolution of sleep states in amniotes.

PLoS Biology, 2018
It is crucial to determine whether rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and slow-wave sleep (SWS) (or non-REM sleep), identified in most mammals and birds, also exist in lizards, as they share a common ancestor with these groups.
