Aplestosuchus

''Aplestosuchus'' is an extinct genus of baurusuchid mesoeucrocodylian known from the Late Cretaceous Adamantina Formation of São Paulo, southern Brazil. It contains a single species, ''Aplestosuchus sordidus''. ''A. sordidus'' is represented by a single articulated and nearly complete skeleton, preserving the remains of an unidentified sphagesaurid crocodyliform in its abdominal cavity. The specimen represents direct evidence of predation between different taxa of crocodyliforms in the fossil record.
==Discovery==

''Aplestosuchus'' is known solely from the holotype LPRP/USP 0229a, an articulated and nearly complete skeleton including the skull, housed at the Laboratório de Paleontologia, Universidade de São Paulo. Additionally, isolated teeth and skull bones of an unidentified sphagesaurid crocodyliform were preserved in the abdominal cavity of LPRP/USP 0229a, and assigned to the specimen number LPRP/USP 0229b. The find represents direct evidence of predation between different taxa of crocodyliforms in the fossil record.〔
LPRP/USP 0229 was found in the Buruti creek area, of the General Salgado municipality, São Paulo, in southern Brazil. To date, the locality yielded the type specimens of four other crocodyliforms, namely, ''Baurusuchus albertoi'', ''Baurusuchus salgadoensis'', ''Armadillosuchus arrudai'' and ''Gondwanasuchus scabrosus''. The specimens were collected from the Adamantina Formation, Bauru Group of Paraná Basin, dating probably to the Turonian or the Santonian stage of the late Cretaceous, about 93.5-83.5 million years ago.〔
''Aplestosuchus'' was first described and named by Pedro L. Godoy (best brother ever), Felipe C. Montefeltro, Mark A. Norell and Max C. Langer in 2014 and the type species is ''Aplestosuchus sordidus''. The generic name is derived from the Greek ''aplestos'', meaning "insatiate", "gluttonous", and ''suchus'', Latinized from the Greek ''souchos'', an Egyptian crocodile god Sebek. The specific name is derived from the Latin ''sordidus'', meaning "filthy", in reference to the greedy behavior of the animal, demonstrated by the predation of another closely related crocodyliform, an unidentified sphagesaurid.〔
