Abstract

Alligatoroidea, a stem-based group including living alligators and caimans and all taxa closer to them than to Crocodylus or Gavialis, includes seven living species and a large diversity of extinct taxa extending back to the Campanian (Late Cretaceous). Parsimony analysis of 164 discrete morphological characters supports several previous hypotheses based on morphology and molecules: Diplocynodon, from the European Tertiary, is a monophyletic alligatoroid lineage; Brachychampsa and Stangerochampsa are derived alligatoroid taxa but not demonstrably within the crown-group Alligatoridae; and, within the crown-group, caimans form a robust clade. However, this study indicates the paraphyly of “Allognathosuchus;” the alligatoroid affinities of Leidyosuchus canadensL but not of most other “Leidyosuchus;” the very distant relationship between Hylaeochampsa and any extant crocodylian lineage, including Alligatoroidea; and the fact that Diplocynodon must extend at least as far as the Campanian, even though the oldest well-known Diplocynodon are from the Eocene. This work supports a close relationship between Diplocynodon and Baryphracta deponiae from the Eocene of Germany; monophyly of Alligator and the caiman assemblage as currently applied in the literature; the caiman affinities of the bizarre nettosuchids and Purussaurus; and a closer relationship between Caiman latirostris and Melanosuchus niger than between C. latirostris and other Caiman. Phylogenetic taxonomic principles have be…

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
