The ziphodont condition is common among terrestrial non-crocodilian crocodylomorphs that lived in the Mesozoic, but among crocodilians it is unique to pristichampsids and the extinct Australian crocodile Quinkana (which is also thought to have been terrestrial).
Esta condición é común entre os crocodilomorfos non crocodilianos terrestres que viviron no Mesozoico, pero entre os crocodilianos só se dá nos pristicámpsidos e no crocodilo australiano extinto Quinkana (que tamén se cre que era de vida terrestre).
