Hsisosuchus
''Hsisosuchus'' is an extinct genus of crocodyliform from China. Currently there are three species within this genus: ''H. dashanpuensis'' is from the Middle Jurassic, while ''H. chungkingensis'' and ''H. chowi'' are from the Late Jurassic. .〔 It is likely to have been a medium-sized predator (~3 meters in length).〔https://sites.google.com/site/snippetsfromourthroughstreams/home/crocodiles-in-the-shadow-of-the-dinosaurs〕 Fossils of ''H. chungkingensis'' were found in the Shangshaximiao Formation (near Chongqing city). The holotype consists of the cranial skeleton and caudal osteoderms. A more complete specimen was found and described that added significant information on the postcranium of ''H. chungkingensis''.〔〔Li J. L., Wu X. C., Li X. M. 1994. New material of ''Hsisosuchus chungkingensis'' from Sichuan, China. ''Vertebrata PalAsiatica'' 32 (2): 107-126. (in Chinese with English summary)〕 ''H. dashanpuensis'' was found in the Xiashaximiao Formation.〔 ''H. chowi'' was found in the Shangshaximiao Formation. The holotype specimen consists of a nearly complete skull (25 cm long), mandibles, most of the vertebral column, partial pectoral and pelvic girdles, most of the forelimbs, fragments of hindlimbs and many osteoderms. It differs from other species of ''Hsisosuchus'' in several features of its skull and postcrania. == References ==
