The first braincase of the basal aetosaur Aetosauroides scagliai (Archosauria: Pseudosuchia) from the Upper Triassic of Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2021
The phylogenetic relationships of Pseudosuchia, the crocodile-line of Archosauria, are still poorly resolved, in part, due to the lack of crucial braincase information for several key taxa.

A new protosuchid crocodyliform (Pseudosuchia, Crocodylomorpha) from the Norian Los Colorados Formation, northwestern Argentina [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2018
Protosuchids are known from the Late Triassic to the Early Cretaceous and form a basal clade of Crocodyliformes. We report here a new protosuchid crocodyliform, Coloradisuchus abelini, gen. et sp.

Novel data on aetosaur (Archosauria, Pseudosuchia) osteoderm microanatomy and histology: palaeobiological implications

open access: yesPalaeontology, 2018
One of the most striking features of aetosaurs is the possession of an extensive bony armour composed of dorsal, ventral and appendicular osteoderms.

A new archosaur from the Manda beds (Anisian, Middle Triassic) of southern Tanzania and its implications for character state optimizations at Archosauria and Pseudosuchia

open access: yesJournal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2014
The presence of early pseudosuchians and avemetatarsalians in Anisian beds of Africa demonstrates that the archosaur radiation was well underway by the beginning of the Middle Triassic.

Pseudosuchia: Masters of survival and diversification

open access: yesAnatomical Record
AbstractIn the context of an increasing interest for Pseudosuchia, we have compiled a Special Issue, comprising 14 collaborative studies that deepen our understanding of pseudosuchian evolution. These contributions range from the description of a new taxon to exhaustive reviews of thermometabolism, morphological adaptation, systematics, and detailed ...

A survey of skeletal elements in the orbit of Pseudosuchia and the origin of the crocodylian palpebral

Earth and Environmental Science Transactions of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, 2012
ABSTRACTOssified skeletal elements within the orbit, such as scleral ossicles, palpebrals, supraorbitals and sesamoids, are widespread across Reptilia, including extant members of Crocodylia, Aves, Squamata and Chelonia. Extant crocodylians lack scleral ossicles, but have a unique palpebral that has recently been shown, through developmental studies ...

Axial skeleton ontogeny in the Parasuchia (Archosauria: Pseudosuchia) and its implications for ontogenetic determination in archosaurs

Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2007
Abstract The sequence of neurocentral suture closure is one criterion for the determination of ontogenetic stage in extant crocodylians. This pattern is frequently used to assess ontogeny for a variety of fossil archosaurs that may or may not follow the same sequence and timing of suture closure.
