Archosauromorph Media
An interaction between two archosauromorphs: Ornithosuchus ( a member of Archosauriformes) scavenging on Hyperodapedon (a rhynchosaur)
Shringasaurus, a horned allokotosaurian from the family Azendohsauridae.
The skeleton of Protorosaurus, one of the oldest archosauromorphs and namesake of the problematic group "Protorosauria"
Champsosaurus, a gharial-like choristodere which survived the Cretaceous-Paleocene extinction event. Choristoderes may represent the fifth group of archosauromorphs, but their origin is obscured.
Cervical vertebrae from Diplodocus, a sauropod dinosaur (Archosauriformes). As with other long-necked archosauromorphs, sauropods had a complex system of laminae on their vertebrae.
