Crocodylomorpha

The Crocodylomorpha route uses the Carnian Carnufex holotype as an early sampled occurrence and living crocodylian descendants as the navigation endpoint; neither edge is an exact clade origin, global FAD or direct ancestor chain. This navigation entry is not a phylogeny or a complete taxon dossier.
