The first jewel-eyed sauceback, the [[brighteyes]], appeared in [[Generation 162]]. It quickly split into two major groups, the flightless monodactyl argusraptors and flighted birdlike interbiats. Their superior eyesight compared to other saucebacks allowed argusraptors to rapidly rise in prominence on the supercontinent as large carnivores, even producing [[Argantua|a giant superpredator]]. The interbiats, meanwhile, diversified into a diverse array of forms superficially resembling primitive birds, the most successful of these being the raptor-like ophreys which bore shorter tails and unidirectional lungs.

==Size==
[[File:Quail Raptor.png|thumb|left|At 20 centimeters in length, the [[Quail Raptor]] is the smallest of all jewel-eyed saucebacks.]][[File:Argantua.png|thumb|At 6.4 meters long, the [[Argantua]] is the largest jewel-eyed sauceback.]][[File:Ascendophrey.png|thumb|At 1.6 meters in length and with a wingspan nearly quadruple that, the [[ascendophrey]] is not only the largest flying sauceback in length, weight, and wingspan, but it is also tall enough while standing to comfortably meet a grown man at eye level.]]Jewel-eyed saucebacks are typically measured by length from the tip of the mandibles to the tip of the tail spike. This is different from other saucebacks, which usually do not have their mandibles included in their measurement. They range from 20 centimeters to a whopping 6.4 meters in length.
