Paracrocodylomorpha

Ticinosuchus is an extinct genus of suchian archosaur (distantly related to modern crocodilians) from the Middle Triassic (Anisian–Ladinian) of Switzerland and Italy. The genus name means "Ticino crocodile" due to its origin from the Swiss canton Ticino. It is one of the only terrestrial animals found in the Besano Formation, a fossil-rich lagerstätte on Monte San Giorgio renowned for its marine fauna (including different groups of fossil fishes, ichthyosaurs, tanystropheids, nothosaurs and placodonts, among others).

Paracrocodylomorpha is a clade of pseudosuchian archosaurs. The clade includes the diverse and unusual group Poposauroidea as well as the generally carnivorous and quadrupedal members of Loricata, including modern crocodylians. Paracrocodylomorpha was named by paleontologist J. Michael Parrish in 1993, although the group is now considered to encompass more reptiles than his original definition intended. The most recent definition of Paracrocodylomorpha, as defined by Sterling Nesbitt in 2011, is "the least inclusive clade containing Poposaurus and Crocodylus niloticus (the Nile crocodile). Mos

Mandasuchus is an extinct genus of loricatan pseudosuchian from the Manda Formation of Tanzania, which dates back to the Anisian stage of the Middle Triassic. It was a quadrupedal carnivore with a relatively long neck. Although this genus was first mentioned by Alan Charig in 1956, a formal description was not published until 2018.

Mambawakale is a genus of large sized basal paracrocodylomorph, possibly a poposauroid, from the Manda Beds of Tanzania. It was informally named Pallisteria before being officially published under its current name almost 60 years after its discovery. It contains a single species, Mambawakale ruhuhu.
