3D Jaw Muscles of Araripesuchus gomesii

This 3D model of the terrestrial, omnivorous notosuchian crocodyliform *Araripesuchus gomessi* (AMNH 24450) from the Early Cretaceous part of the Santana group of the Araripe Basin of Northeastern Brazil. Araripesuchus has heterodont teeth and slender legs. This specimen is a nearly immaculate, acid prepared, articulated skeleton.
