Captorhinida is a doubly paraphyletic grouping of early reptiles. Robert L. Carroll ranked it as an order in the subclass Anapsida, composed of the following suborders:

While they all share primitive features and resemble the ancestors of all modern reptiles, some of these families are more closely related to the clade Parareptilia, while others are further along the line leading to diapsids. For this reason, the group is only used informally, if at all, by most modern paleontologists. All members of this group are thought to be extinct.
