Sebecidae
Sebecidae is an extinct family of prehistoric terrestrial sebecosuchian crocodylomorphs. Sebecids were diverse, abundant and broadly distributed in South America during the Cenozoic, until the Middle Miocene; although it has been suggested that at least some forms could have survived until the Miocene-Pliocene boundary in Brazil.
This group included many medium- and large-sized genera, from Sebecus to a giant indeterminate unnamed species from the Miocene.Phylogeny
