About: Brachysuchus

An Entity of Type: Whole100003553, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Brachysuchus (meaning "wide crocodile") is an extinct genus of phytosaur known from the late Triassic period (Carnian stage) of Dockum Group in Texas, United States. It is known from the holotype UMMP 10336 is composed of a skull, lower jaws and partial postcranium and from the associated paratype UMMP 14366, nearly complete skull, recovered from the 'Pre-Tecovas Horizon' in the Dockum Group. It was first named by Case in 1929 and the type species is Brachysuchus megalodon. Its closest relative was Angistorhinus. However, its rostral crest was much smaller than that of Angistorhinus, and the rostrum as a whole is shorter and thicker.

  • Brachysuchus (betekent 'brede krokodil') is een geslacht van uitgestorven phytosauriërs, bekend uit het Laat-Trias (Carnien) van de Dockum Group in Texas. Het is bekend van het holotype UMMP 10336 dat is samengesteld uit een schedel, onderkaken en gedeeltelijk postcranium en van het bijbehorende paratype UMMP 14366, een bijna volledige schedel, gevonden op de 'Pre-Tecovas Horizon' in de Dockum Group. Het werd voor het eerst benoemd in 1929 door Case en de typesoort is Brachysuchus megalodon. Zijn naaste verwant was Angistorhinus. De rostrale kam was echter veel kleiner dan die van Angistorhinus en het rostrum als geheel is korter en dikker. (nl)
