Un nuevo espécimen de cocodrilo marino del Jurásico Medio del norte de Chile: revalidación de Metriorhynchus westermanni (Crocodyliformes: Metriorhynchidae)
(Servicio Nacional de Geología y Minería (SERNAGEOMIN), 2008)
The evolution of extreme hypercarnivory in metriorhynchidae (Mesoeucrocodylia: Thalattosuchia) based on evidence from microscopic denticle morphology
(Society of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2010-09)
Metriorhynchids were a peculiar group of fully marine Mesozoic crocodylomorphs. The derived genera Dakosaurus and Geosaurus exhibit a macroevolutionary trend towards extreme hypercarnivory, underpinned by a diverse array ...
Postcranial skeleton of Cricosaurus araucanensis (Crocodyliformes: Thalattosuchia): morphology and palaeobiological insights
(Taylor & Francis, 2013-01)
The metriorhynchid crocodyliform Cricosaurus araucanensis (Gasparini & Dellapé) has been documented from Tithonian (Upper Jurassic) strata of the Vaca Muerta Formation exposed in the Neuquén Basin, northwest Patagonia, ...
Metriorhynchidae (Crocodylomorpha: Thalattosuchia) from upper jurassic–lower cretaceous of Neuquén basin (Argentina), with comments on the natural casts of the brainMetriorhynchidae (Crocodylomorpha: Thalattosuchia) del jurásico superior–cretácico inferior de la Cuenca Neuquina (Argentina), con comentarios sobre los moldes naturales del encéfalo
(Asociacion Paleontologica Argentina, 2015-12)
Los Metriorhynchidae fueron los únicos Crocodylomorpha con un estilo de vida marino pelágico. Relacionado con este estilo de vida, su peculiar plan corporal permite diferenciarlos claramente de los demás Crocodylomorpha. ...
Tooth-On-Tooth Interlocking Occlusion Suggests Macrophagy in the Mesozoic Marine Crocodylomorph Dakosaurus
(Wiley-liss, Div John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2012-07)
Metriorhynchidae was a peculiar but long-lived group of marine Mesozoic crocodylomorphs adapted to a pelagic lifestyle. Recent discoveries show that metriorhynchids evolved a wide range of craniodental morphotypes and ...
Braincase and endocranial anatomy of two thalattosuchian crocodylomorphs and their relevance in understanding their adaptations to the marine environment
(PeerJ Inc., 2018-11)
Thalattosuchians are a group of Mesozoic crocodylomorphs known from aquatic deposits of the Early Jurassic-Early Cretaceous that comprises two main lineages of almost exclusively marine forms, Teleosauridae and Metriorhynchoidea. ...
