==Description==
Gryposuchines
==Classification==
Gryposuchinae was named in 2007 as a subfamily of closely related gavialid crocodilians. It was [[cladistics|cladistically]] defined as a [[stem-based taxon]] including ''Gryposuchus jessei'' and all crocodilians more closely related to it than to ''Gavialis gangeticus'' (the [[gharial]]) or ''Tomistoma schlegelii'' (the [[False gharial]]).<ref name=V-JBS07/> The [[tomistominae|tomistomines]] (including the living [[false gharial]]) were long thought to be classified as [[crocodile]]s and not closely related to [[gavialoids]].<ref name=Brochu2000>{{cite journal |last=Brochu |first=C.A. |author2=Gingerich, P.D. |year=2000 |title=New tomistomine crocodylian from the Middle Eocene (Bartonian) of Wadi Hitan, Fayum Province, Egypt |journal=University of Michigan Contributions from the Museum of Paleontology |volume=30 |issue=10 |pages=251–268}}</ref> However, recent molecular studies using [[DNA sequencing]] have consistently indicated that the [[false gharial]] (''Tomistoma'') (and by inference other related extinct forms in [[Tomistominae]]) actually belong to [[Gavialoidea]] (and [[Gavialidae]]).<ref name="Harshman2003">{{cite journal |pmid=12775527 |year=2003 |last1=Harshman |first1=J. |title=True and false gharials: A nuclear gene phylogeny of crocodylia |journal=Systematic Biology |volume=52 |issue=3 |pages=386–402 |last2=Huddleston |first2=C.

A [[phylogenetic]] analysis conducted in the 2007 study found Gryposuchinae to include the genera ''Aktiogavialis'', ''Gryposuchus'', ''[[Ikanogavialis]]'', ''[[Piscogavialis]]'', and ''[[Siquisiquesuchus]]''.

Alternatively, phylogenetic studies recovering the [[tomistomines]] (including the living [[false gharial]]) within [[Gavialidae]] have indicated that the members of Gryposuchinae and the [[genus]] ''[[Gryposuchus]]'' may in fact be [[paraphyletic]] and rather an [[evolutionary grade]] towards ''[[Gavialis]]'' and the [[gharial]],<ref name="Rio2021"/><ref name="LeeYates2018"/> as shown in the cladogram below:<ref name="Rio2021">{{cite journal |last1=Rio |first1=Jonathan P. |last2=Mannion |first2=Philip D. |date=6 September 2021 |title=Phylogenetic analysis of a new morphological dataset elucidates the evolutionary history of Crocodylia and resolves the long-standing gharial problem |journal=[[PeerJ]] |volume=9 |pages=e12094 |doi=10.7717/peerj.12094 |pmid=34567843 |pmc=8428266 |doi-access=free}}</ref>
