帕布獸鱷屬

帕布兽鱷屬(屬名:Pabwehshi)是鱷形超目包鲁鱷科的一屬。正模標本(編號GSP-UM 2000)是一個部分上頜與下頜。化石發現於巴基斯坦俾路支省的Pab組地層,地質年代相當於白堊紀晚期的馬斯垂克階。帕布兽鱷是第一個發現於南亞的白堊紀鱷形類。牠們的嘴部牙齒互相交錯,邊緣成鋸齒狀。

在2001年,傑佛瑞·威爾森(Jeffrey A. Wilson)等人將這些化石敘述、命名。模式種巴基斯坦帕布兽鱷P. pakistanensis) ,屬名意為「Pab的野獸」,wehshi烏爾都語意為「野獸」[1]

在早期分類法裡,帕布兽鱷被歸類於包鲁鱷科,是犬齒鱷包魯鱷的近親[1][2][3][4][5][6]。在2007年,其他研究人員發現帕布兽鱷與西貝鱷類佩羅鱷科有相似處[7]。在2011年,Montefeltro等人發現帕布兽鱷的上頜顎部有個矢狀隆起部,這是種包鲁鱷科的特徵,但他們沒有提出帕布兽鱷在種系發生學上的演化、分類位置[8]
