Candidodon
''Candidodon'' is an extinct genus of notosuchian mesoeucrocodylian. Fossils have been found of Early Cretaceous age from Brazil. The genus is characterized by a particularly elongate pair of choanae in its palate.〔de Andrade, M. B., Bertini, R. J. and Pinheiro, A. E. P. (2006) Observations on the palate and choanae structures in Mesoeucrocodylia (Archosauria, Crocodylomorpha): phylogenetic implications. ''Revista Brasileira de Paleontologia'' 9(3):323-332.〕 It has been named the type genus of the family Candidodontidae, first constructed in 2004. It was initially assigned to the family with a proposed sister genus, ''Mariliasuchus'', but a recent phylogenetic analysis has shown that ''Mariliasuchus'' may instead be closer in relation to ''Comahuesuchus'' than to ''Candidodon'' and thus a member of the family Comahuesuchidae. If this is true, ''Candidodon'' would be the only member of the family Candidodontidae. ==References==
