#Terminonaris is not a #gavial or #gharial but rather a #pholidosaur.
Named by Osborn in 1904 as #Teleorhinus
he suspected the name might be preoccupied and provided an alternate name, Terminonaris, in his original paper. I wonder why more didn’t do that then.

Osborn 1904 gave #Teleorhinus robusta an alternate genus, #Terminonaris, when he named it. Why didn’t more folk hedge their bets on names?
Not a gavial but rather evolutionary convergence at its finest. Tis a 25’, 2,000 lb+ #pholidosaurs, a kind of #crocodylomorph.

The mouth is not really like an alligator but I always wanted to work a Quiet Riot song into a post!
Yet another reason to fear the Late Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway…
This cast is available for purchase from Triebold Paleontology Inc btw.

#Terminonaris cast at the TPI booth in Tucson!
Such a cool beast! I love the syllables croc researchers use: Mesoeucrocodylia pholidosaurid crocodyliform or somesuch:-)
Late Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway predator, as if it needed more!

Happy #FossilFriday! I know I’ve hit this before, but now #Terminonaris is a candidate for the #Minnesota State #Fossil! This snout of the big #crocodile-relative was found in the Iron Range, from the Age of the #Dinosaurs. Vote #TeamTerminonaris here!
