Stomatosuchus
Stomatosuchus is an extinct long stomatosuchid neosuchian from the Late Cretaceous of Egypt. Unlike most other crocodyliforms, it is difficult to determine exactly what S. inermis ate. Its flattened skull had a long, flat, lid-like snout, which was lined with small, conical teeth. The mandible may have been toothless and may have supported a pelican-like throat pouch. The type, and only, specimen of S. inermis consists of a partial skull and two caudal vertebrae.
The only known specimen which was collected by the German paleontologist Ernst Stromer's Egyptian expedition, was unfortunately obliterated when the Munich Museum was destroyed during an Allied bombing raid in 1944. Only photographs remain.
