The evolution of extreme hypercarnivory in Metriorhynchidae (Mesoeucrocodylia: Thalattosuchia) based on evidence from microscopic denticle morphology

Metriorhynchids were a peculiar group of fully marine Mesozoic crocodylomorphs. The derived genera Dakosaurus and Geosaurus exhibit a macroevolutionary trend towards extreme hypercarnivory, underpinned by a diverse array of craniodental adaptations, including denticulate serrated (ziphodont) dentition. A comparative analysis of serrations in Metriorhynchidae shows that known Dakosaurus species had conspicuous denticles, in contrast to the microscopic denticles of Geosaurus. A new tooth from the Nusplingen Plattenkalk of Germany provides evidence for a previously unknown large species of Geosaurus. Metriorhynchid specimens from the upper Kimmeridgian-lower Tithonian of Southern Germany show that ziphodont species of Dakosaurus and Geosaurus co-occurred in the Nusplingen and Solnhofen Seas. Although these genera are similarly denticulate, they diverge in overall crown morphology. Therefore, resource/niche partitioning via craniodental differentiation is posited as maintaining two contemporaneous genera of highly predatory metriorhynchids. Additionally, the new generic name Torvoneustes is proposed for "Geosaurus" carpenteri, the only known metriorhynchid with false-ziphodont dentition. A cladistic analysis shows that ziphodont dentition may have evolved independently in Dakosaurus and Geosaurus, or been acquired earlier by their common ancestor and secondarily lost in Torvoneustes and related taxa.Fil: Brandalise de Andrade, Marco.

Revision of the subfamily Pitarinae Stewart, 1930 (Eucallista Dall, 1902; Austrocallista Erdmann & Morra, 1985; Proteopitar gen. nov.) from Cenozoic southern South America: systematic and phylogenetic analyses

Systematic and phylogenetic analyses of fossil and extant Pitarinae of the South-Western Atlantic Ocean and Chile have been performed. The group is represented by Eucallista Dall, 1902 (early Miocene–Recent), Austrocallista Erdmann & Morra, 1985 (Eocene–Pliocene) and Proteopitar gen. nov. (middle Miocene–Recent). Eucallista and Austrocallista have sculptured nymphs and include species previously assigned to Amiantis Carpenter, 1864. Eucallista is represented by three species: the extant E. purpurata (Lamarck, 1818) (Pleistocene–Recent, South-Western Atlantic Ocean from Golfo San Matías [Argentina] to Espirito Santo [Brazil]) and two fossil taxa, E. laziarina (Ihering, 1907) from the Miocene and Pliocene of Chile, Argentina and Uruguay, and E. domeykoana (Philippi, 1887) from the Miocene and Pliocene of Chile and Peru. Austrocallista has four taxa: Austrocallista sp. from the Eocene of Santa Cruz Province, A. iheringi (Cossmann, 1898) from the late Oligocene–middle Miocene of Patagonia, A. australis (Feruglio, 1935) (lectotype MGGC 607) from the early Miocene of Santa Cruz Province, and A. boliviana (Philippi, 1887) from the Miocene and Pliocene of Chile and Peru. Proteopitar gen. nov. is erected to incorporate two species previously assigned to Pitar Römer, 1857: Proteopitar mutabilis (del Río & Martínez, 1998) from the middle Miocene–late Miocene of Argentina and the Pleistocene–Recent species Proteopitar patagonicus (d’Orbigny, 1835–1847) (from Rio de Janeiro [Brazil] to Bahía Vera [Chubut, Argentina]). These systematic hypotheses are corroborated by the phylogenetic analysis performed, which is the first one of the subfamily that includes fossil and extant taxa based on morphological characters of the shell. In addition, a new site on the coast of Río Negro Province which contains shells of the extant species is dated as 830 Ka BP (MIS21), being the oldest record of both extant species. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:16519263-4F9E-41AB-A009-EAC030681826.Fil: Alvarez, Maximiliano Jorge.
