O is for Ornithosuchus, a distant croc-relative from the Triassic of Scotland. It may have been a facultative biped, meaning it could walk on two legs, but it could also walk on all fours.

N is for Notosuchus, a terrestrial crocodyliform with heterodont dentition from the Cretaceous of Argentina. It’s possible this croc was omnivorous or maybe even herbivorous.

As fragmentary as it is, Siamosaurus has a surprisingly rich history in research and palaeoart. Right now it's in a bit of a limbo state until better fossils are found, but hopefully it'll earn its place as a definitively valid spinosaur.

Open areas would have been covered by other types of plants, yes. We actually have one site from the Late Cretaceous where a volcanic flow preserved a bunch of open areas in full detail. Here are some reconstructions of that site by Mary Parrish, and some of the fossils.
