Crocodilia are an order of mostly large, predatory, semi-aquatic reptiles. All living crocodiles today can be sorted in three main families.

Alligatoridae - The family includes alligators and caimans

Crocodylidae - The family includes all true crocodiles

Gavialidae - The family includes only two extant crocodilians distinguished by elongated, narrow snouts
