But heres some other pseudosuchian/phytosaur stuff of the NHMW

(1) Dilophosaurus, warm blooded.

(2) Chlamydosaurus kingii, reptile = cold blooded, not a dinosaur.

(3) Baryonyx, warm blood, 'crocodile face' not gator.

(4) Order phytosaur, reptile = cold blood, different order of crocodilia (crocodiles, gharials, gators, etc) also reptiles.
