Comparison between phylogenetic analyses including and lacking postcranial information: A) reproduction of the analysis of Narváez et al. [12]; B) addition of A. palustris and A. hulki with postcranial information to the dataset of Narváez et al. [12]; C) topology from replicated phylogenetic analysis excluding postcranial information in allodaposuchid taxa; and D) topology from phylogenetic analysis including postcranial information, but lacking A. palustris and A. hulki as OTUs. Numbers indicate bootstrap support for the main nodes.

Strict consensus tree of the phylogenetic analysis with revised character codification and postcranial information (up), CI: 0.29, RI: 0.77; and detail of the family Allodaposuchidae showing common synapomorphies (down).
Numbers in the consensus tree (up) indicate bootstrap frequencies for the main nodes, and Bremer support (over 2) in parentheses. Chronological ranges according to Fondevilla et al. [55]. Discontinuous bars represent approximate chronological ranges, and continuous bars reflect well-calibrated occurrences. Node 1 (Crocodylia): characters 711, 740, 1181, 1211, 1310, 1581; node 2: characters 121, 281 1351; node 3 (Allodaposuchidae): characters 1281, 1371, 1480, 1490, 1511, 1530; node 4: characters 632, 1081, 1251, 1731; node 5: characters 1021; node 6: character 921; node 7: characters 871, 1330; node 8: characters 1422, 1521; node 9: character 1531; node 10: characters 731, 1020, 1691.

Palaeobiogeographical distribution of Allodaposuchidae.
Colours distinguish between late Campanian (yellow), early Maastrichtian (light green) and late Maastrichtian (dark green) taxa. Base map for late Campanian (~ 75 Mya), modified from Csiki-Sava et al. [1] distributed under a CC BY 4.0 license, and based on the reconstruction performed by R. Blakey.
