The Forgotten Archosaurs

Originating approximately 250 million years ago, the Archosauria ("Ruling Reptiles") became one of the most diverse and successful clades of vertebrates on earth. However, many of the amazing creatures that are a part of that diversity are often overshadowed by the poster children of the archosaurs - the dinosaurs. This blog looks at those often forgotten archosaurs, focusing especially on the croc-line, but occasionally looking at the bird-line and even outside of crown-group Archosauria.

Sadly I wasn't looking very carefully, as on closer examination the list appears to include a number of creation "museums". That doesn't diminish the credibility of this blog (and others) in the slightest, but they mustn't have been very rigorous in their search.
