Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| M. M. Johnson et al. 2020 | A number of synapomorphies, notably in the premaxilla, supports the subfamily Aeolodontinae, which includes the genera Mycterosuchus, Aeolodon, Sericodon and Bathysuchus. These include an ‘8’shaped premaxilla in anterior view (56.1), reduced basioccipital tuberosities (230.0), laterally oriented P1 and P2 (294.2), P1 and P2 do not form a couplet but are situated on the anterior margin of the premaxilla (295.1), P1 and P2 are both on the same transverse plane (298.1) and the anterior margin between the P2-P3 is sub-rectangular, with the P3 being clearly lateral to the P2 (299.1). Four out of six characters are new to this dataset. |
