Simosuchus (SciiFii)

Simosuchus (meaning "pug-nosed crocodile" in Greek, referring to the animal's blunt snout) is a genus of notosuchian crocodylomorphs from the Late Cretaceous of Madagascar. It is named for its unusually short skull. Fully grown individuals were about 0.75 metres (2.5 ft) in length. The type species is Simosuchus clarki, found from the Maevarano Formation in Mahajanga Province.

The teeth of S. clarki were coven shaped (similar in shape to a maple leaf) which coupled with its short and deep snout suggest it was not a carnivore like most other crocodylomorphs. In fact, these features have led many palaeontologists to consider it an herbivore.
