Order Crocodilia
Crocodilians, along with birds, are the only survivors of the once-prevalent Archosauria. During the Mesozoic (245-65 million years ago) this group, including dinosaurs and other reptiles, dominated life on all continents and in the oceans. Most or all of crocodilians' adaptations had already evolved by the late Triassic (about 200 million years ago). Crocodilians are the most advanced surviving reptiles; many of their features are more similar to mammals or birds than to other reptiles.

Bibliography of Crocodilian Biology
An ever-growing web-site that catalogs references of anything related to the biology of crocodiles, alligators, caimans, and extinct crocs of various sorts (down to Crocodyliformes). Currently, it contains over 2500 references, ranging in focus from paleontology and ecology through molecular biology (including bio-medical articles). [eng]

Crocodylia (Crocodilians)
The 22 existing members of the order Crocodylia are among the oldest species on earth. Despite their ties to the ancient past, they have characteristics that are more advanced than any other living reptiles. [eng]

Crocodile Specialist Group
Bringing alligators, caimans, crocodiles, and gharials back from the edge of extinction and returning them to former abundance is one of the true success stories in international wildlife conservation. Much of this success stems from the work of the Crocodile Specialist Group (CSG), an international network of people working to conserve the world's 23 species of crocodilians. The program of the CSG, its Newsletters, Action Plan for Crocodilian Conservation, and Crocodilian Photo Gallery are presented here. [eng]
