🚨Croc paper alert! Please welcome Thilastikosuchus scutorectangularis 🐊, the oldest notosuchian from South America and the first crocodyliform from the Sanfranciscana Basin, Brazil! Happy to be part of this team. Huge thanks to Joyce for being invited to collaborate! #paleontology

Size comparison and skull reconstruction of Orientalosuchus naduongensis, a fairly small crocodilian from the Eocene of Vietnam. #sciart #orientalosuchus #crocodilia

We're thrilled to announce the publication of an exciting new Special Issue on pseudosuchian paleobiology and systematics, Guest Edited by Mariana Valeria de Araujo Sena, Holly Woodward & Jorge Cubo. anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/19328494... Beautiful cover paleoart by Guilherme Gehr

New #crocpaper alert !🐊🚨 And just in time for Christmas ! We studied the variation of the morphology of the endosseous labyrinths (inner ears) of extant crocs. Published in @journalofanatomy.bsky.social today : doi.org/10.1111/joa.... Thread below:

Bust of Sebecus icaeorhinus. This is actually a test for a larger -Iberosuchus- project I am working on. Sebecosuchia was really something. #Crocodylomorpha

A juvenile Macrospondylus for #FossilFriday - some exciting data collection coming from this fella soon! 🐊

New research on functional and phylogenetic signals in the pectoral girdle of Thalattosuchia and Dyrosauridae. Study by Isaure Scavezzoni et al.: https://buff.ly/3VcXhpp

New #crocpaper alert ! 🐊🚨 Fossil crocodylomorphs lived in a wide diversity of environments compared to extant ones. This review (my first one !) focuses on those adaptations, from very early Triassic forms to crown group eusuchians ! doi.org/10.1002/ar.2... in @anatrecord.bsky.social

Supermassive new paper (162 pages!) led by Dr Isaure Scavezzoni on the pectoral girdle anatomy of thalattosuchian and dyrosaurid crocodylomorphs, highlighting the enormous amount of information in croc postcranial skeletons! @michela-johnson.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/author...
