Paul Sereno and A. B. Arcucci named Crurotarsi in 1990, defining it as "Parasuchia [phytosaurs], Ornithosuchidae, Prestosuchus, Suchia, and all descendants of their common ancestor". [2] The groups in this definition were considered crocodile-line archosaurs, as opposed to the bird-line archosaurs.

However further studies on the relationship of this family have repeatedly found them to form a sister clade to peirosaurids , forming a clade that in turn groups together with uruguaysuchids such as Anatosuchus ...
Sereno and Brusatte, 2008 Maxilla Eocarcharia (meaning "dawn shark") is a genus of carcharodontosaurid theropod dinosaur from the Early Cretaceous Elrhaz Formation that lived in the Sahara 112 million years ago, in what today is the country of Niger .
Novas defined the family as the least common ancestor of Herrerasaurus and Staurikosaurus and all its descendants. [21] A differing definition of Herrerasauridae as the most inclusive clade including Herrerasaurus but not Passer domesticus was first suggested by Sereno (1998), and more closely follows the original inclusion proposed by ...

[1] The subfamily consists of gigantic derived carcharodontosaurids, among the largest theropod dinosaurs known, comparable in size to Tyrannosaurus. Carcharodontosaurinae is defined as the least inclusive clade containing Carcharodontosaurus and Giganotosaurus. Within this ...
