Good old Dr Daz: He always manages to come out with new stuff that I had never even heard of before. In the latest editions of the increasingly excellent Tetrapod Zoology he introduces us to a series of small, land-dwelling crocodilians from Pacific islands, which were alive only a few thousand years ago, and were certainly contemporaeneous (and I think that is how you spell it) with our own species. This is something that you certainly have to check out..http://scienceblogs.com/tetrapodzoology/2009/05/mekosuchines_2009.php
