"Scalies is a furry term use to describe both are anthropomorphic creatures of the reptile and amphibian variety, and furries that identify themselves as such or prefer the concept of such beings over furred characters. It is also a self-moniker for the users of alt.fan.dragons, a Usenet discussion group for all things draconid.

As creations, scaly characters tend to have a coating of scales much like the animals they represent. However, some scalies, including dragons and dinosaurs, have very light or no true scales, but a fleshy hide similar to the skin of a human."
