At around this time Africa was a true croc paradise. In Pliocene Kenya, Euthecodon coexisted with up to 4 other species. Crocodylus thorbjarnarsoni, Crocodylus checchiai, Eogavialis and Mecistops. 16/20

Well I suppose that wasn't a lie, the new Suchomimus and Baryonyx recons with sail notch however are fascinating and I'm glad to see them finally published.
Such a boss is a trait unique to the Neotropic lineage of crocodiles and today seems most well developed in some specimens of the American Crocodile. This creates a link between C. checchiai and neotropic Crocodylus (6/19)

Yesterday they described a new species of Capybara from San Diego county and turns out the species name, hesperotiganites, means "western pancake"
Yet another new fossil croc, Confractosuchus from the Australian Winton Formation was discovered with the remains of a small ornithopod in its guts

Drazinderetes is similar, it reached perhaps enormous proportions and was described in 1999, yet most paleoart in existance was made very recently, and only because of the first size chart shown here being randomly brought up on #paleostream
