Abstract

The recently described clade Allodaposuchidae includes European eusuchian crocodyliforms restricted to the uppermost Cretaceous (Campanian and Maastrichtian). The phylogenetic status of the forms so far related to this clade is evaluated here. Allodaposuchidae shows a vicariant distribution pattern in the European Upper Cretaceous archipelago, with several Ibero-Armorican forms more closely related to each other than with the Romanian species Allodaposuchus precedens. Several specimens traditionally assigned to Allodaposuchus precedens are recognized as representatives of Allodaposuchidae not belonging to this species and, in some cases, probably corresponding to new forms.
