Publicación New crocodyliforms from southwestern Europe and definition of a diverse clade of European uppermost Cretaceous basal eusuchians(Public Library of Science, 2015-11-04) Narváez Padilla, Iván; Brochu, Christopher A.; Escaso Santos, Fernando; Pérez García, Adán; Ortega Coloma, Francisco Javier; Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad. España; US National Science FoundationThelate Campanian-early Maastrichtian site of Lo Hueco (Cuenca, Spain) has provided a set of well-preserved crocodyliform skull and lower jaw remains, which are described here and assigned to a newbasaleusuchiantaxon, Lohuecosuchus megadontos gen. et sp. nov. The reevaluation of a complete skull from the synchronous site of Fox-Amphoux (Department of Var, France) allows us to define a second species of this new genus. Phylogenetic analysis places Lohuecosuchus in a clade exclusively composed by European Late Cretaceous taxa. This new clade, defined here as Allodaposuchidae, is recognized as the sister group of Hylaeochampsidae, also comprised of European Cretaceous forms. Allodaposuchidae and Hylaeochampsidae are grouped in aclade identified as the sister group of Crocodylia, the only crocodyliform lineage that reaches our days. Allodaposuchidae shows avicariant distribution pattern in the European Late Cretaceous archipelago, with several Ibero-Armorican forms more closely related to each other than with to Romanian Allodaposuchus precedens.
