“…Recent research on A. scagliai has provided a better understanding of its intraspecific variation Taborda et al, 2013;Taborda et al, 2015;Paes Neto et al, 2021b) and cranial osteology (Brust et al, 2018;Paes Neto et al, 2021a). These and other studies (e.g., Desojo, 2005) have firmly established the Gondwanan A. scagliai as a valid taxon, distinct from the Laurasian S. robertsoni and Calyptosuchus wellesi Ballew, 1985 (contra Heckert andLucas, 2000;Lucas and Heckert, 2001;Heckert and Lucas, 2002), a status recognized in most recent work on the group (e.g., Desojo et al, 2012Desojo et al, , 2013Robertoda-Silva et al, 2014;Heckert et al, 2015;Parker, 2016a,b;Schoch and Desojo, 2016;Ezcurra et al, 2017;Brust et al, 2018;Hoffman et al, 2018;Parker, 2018a,b;Desojo et al, 2020a,b;Marsh et al, 2020;Czepiński et al, 2021;Reyes et al, 2021).…”
