- Crocodylian Snouts in Space and Time: Phylogenetic Approaches Toward Adaptive Radiation1 (2001, methodology): “The phylogenetic hypothesis used in this study is reflected in Figures 2–4 and is based on several parsimony analyses of morphological characters for the crowngroup (Norell, 1989; Salisbury and Willis, 1996; Brochu, 1997, 1999, 2000).”
- PHYLOGENETIC APPROACHES TOWARD CROCODYLIAN HISTORY (2003, methodology): “According to some datasets (Densmore & White 1991, Brochu 2000), the basalmost species withinCrocodylusis the African sharp-nosed crocodile,Crocodylus cataphractus(Figure 7).”
- Best Practices for Justifying Fossil Calibrations (2011, background): “…or an Explicit, Up-to-Date, Phylogenetic Analysis that Includes the Specimen(s) Should be Referenced Incorrect phylogenetic placement of fossil calibrations can introduce large errors into divergence date estimates (Lee 1999; Brochu 2000; van Tuinen and Hedges 2004; Phillips et al. 2010).”
- Morphology, relationships, and biogeographical significance of an extinct horned crocodile (Crocodylia, Crocodylidae) from the Quaternary of Madagascar (2007, methodology): “The latter is not unique to osteolaemines; most crocodyloid skulls bear nearly parasagittal ridges on the lacrimal, and they become especially prominent in Indopacific species of Crocodylus (Brazaitis, 1973; Brochu, 2000).”
- A Giant Crocodile from the Plio-Pleistocene of Kenya, the Phylogenetic Relationships of Neogene African Crocodylines, and the Antiquity of Crocodylus in Africa (2012, background): “The boss found in Nawata “niloticus” rises directly (though gradually) from the surrounding rostral surface and closely resembles the mid-rostral boss found in living Neotropical species of Crocodylus (Schmidt, 1924; Brochu, 2000).”
