Mammals evolved from a group of mammal-like reptiles called the Synapsids, specifically the Therapsids, in the Triassic period, around 250 million years ago.
Mammals are the only living synapsids. The synapsid lineage became distinct from the sauropsid lineage in the late Carboniferous period, between 320 and 315 million years ago. The sauropsids are today's reptiles and birds along with all the extinct animals more closely related to them than to mammals.
