早白垩世早期小型鳄鱼Bernissartia fagesii Dollo，1883年的确切亲缘关系尚不清楚。我们回顾了B.fagesii的解剖学，并提出了它与Eusuchias密切相关的证据，这最初是由Dollo提出的，但与Buffetaut的假说相反。文中提出了法氏伯氏杆菌和真鳄鱼的修正诊断，并就现存鳄鱼之间的系统发育关系讨论了法氏伯尼撒氏菌作为真鳄鱼外群的意义。
The precise affinities of the small Early Cretaceous crocodylomorph Bernissartia fagesii DOLLO, 1883 have been unclear. We review the anatomy of B. fagesii and present evidence that it is closely related to the Eusuchia, as was originally suggested by DOLLO but contrary to the hypothesis of BUFFETAUT. Revised diagnoses of B. fagesii and of the Eusuchia are presented, and the implications of Bernissartia fagesii as an outgroup to the Eusuchia are discussed with regard to phylogenetic relationships among living crocodylians
