     The tooth (MFGI V 2015.90.2.1.) from the Albian Alsópere Bauxite Formation, western Hungary, however, is ziphodont and closely resembles that of some peirosaurid, non-baurusuchian sebecosuchian, and uruguaysuchid crocodyliforms—all of which have been united into a single clade, Notosuchia ( Sereno et al., 2001 ; Pol et al., 2014 ).
