Heres some interesting pieces of large phytosaur sp. scutes from the Chinle Formation of Arizona. What is unusual about these scutes is the dark preservation that is rarely seen. Phytosaurs are members of the order Phytosauria. These were semiaquatic, crocodile-like reptiles characterized by long snouts, conical teeth, short legs, heavy tails, and long, low-slung bodies. They also had skin armored with scale-like scutes. However, Phytosaurs are not related to modern Crocodilians. The similarities are an example of parallel evolution, where two different species develop similar characteristics and attributes without a common ancestor.
