  Mekosuchinae - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
They first appear in the fossil record in the early Miocene in Australia, and survived until the Pliocene in Australia and until the arrival of man in the Pacific islands of Fiji, New Caledonia and Vanuatu.
Note there is disagreement on whether or not Mekosuchinae is a subfamily within Crocodylidae, or a distinct family on its own.
An early species, from Riversleigh Queensland, called Trilophosuchus rackhami, was a short snouted large eyed species that has been nicknamed the 'drop croc' as it is theorised it may have attacked prey by climbing trees and dropping on them.

 Turtle, Tuatara, Crocodile Checklist--1   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Herpetofauna Mexico 5:53-54, discussed the nomenclature of the group name, including justification for using Crocodylia (Gmelin 1789) rather than Crocodilia (Owen 1842) as the ordinal name.
They also reviewed evidence for recognizing two families, Crocodylidae and Gavialidae with three subfamilies in the former, Alligatorinae, Crocodylinae, and Tomistominae, rather than the more traditional three families, Alligatoridae, Crocodylidae, and Gavialidae; see also Sill 1968, Copeia (1):76-88.
This checklist follows a middle ground in recognizing three families, but breaks the Crocodylidae into the Crocodylinae and Tomistominae.
