Protosuchia is a group of extinct Mesozoic crocodyliforms. They were small in size (~1 meter in length) and terrestrial . In phylogenetic terms, Protosuchia is considered an informal group because it is a grade of basal crocodyliforms, not a true clade .
Protosuchus (from Greek: protos, "first" and Greek: souchos, "crocodile") [1] is an extinct genus of carnivorous crocodyliform from the Early Jurassic.It is among the earliest animals that resemble crocodilians.

The name Pseudosuchia was originally given to a group of superficially crocodile-like prehistoric reptiles from the Triassic period, but fell out of use in the late 20th century, especially after the name Crurotarsi was established in 1990 to label the clade (evolutionary grouping) of archosaurs encompassing most reptiles previously identified as pseudosuchians.
Proterosuchus fergusi from the Early Triassic of South Africa. They were slender, medium-sized (about 1.5 m (4 ft 11 in) long, largest specimens reached 3.5–4 m (11–13 ft) [2]), long-snouted and superficially crocodile-like animals, although they lacked the armoured scutes of true crocodiles, and their skeletal features are much more primitive.
In their phylogenetic analyses, Wu et al. (2025) recovered Pattisaura as a basal crocodylomorph in a sister taxon relationship with Redondavenator.The researchers noted that these two genera are the geographically closest non-crocodyliform crocodylomorphs in North America, although Redondavenator is from the slightly younger Redonda Formation of New Mexico.
