Hi everybody,

I am looking for recent publications on Crocodile and Alligator tooth
development. I enclose some publications I have found useful. Please, could
someone suggest me others?

Respectfully,

Xavier

Probably, some papers of J.W. Osborn may be interesting (See references of 
Weishampel, 1991).
