No where have I ever seen it stated that the Cuban Crocodile is considered a subspecies of the American Crocodile. In fact, the 2 species live together in Cuba as stated by the very link on this article. I would like some sources for that claim.MFuture 19:56, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Inter(e)stingly a google search of "Crocodylus acutus rhombifer" turned up one hit (in German, so I couldn't read it). The statement does seem quite dubious. Sabine's Sunbird talk 20:26, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The same thing has happened on the page for

American Crocodile. No explanation or reference, just a blanket claim that C. acutus is the ONLY New World species. I've changed both and put up references for back-up. CFLeon 20:49, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply

• I don't like the introduction's phrase 'native only to Cuba's Zapata swamp'. It's NATIVE to much of the Caribbean. Zapata and the Isle of Pines are where it's range has been reduced to. CFLeon 21:35, 30 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Changed Crocodilian.com to its Cuban crocodile subpage [1]. University of Florida edu page, looks well referenced. Hope this is OK. Rv if you disagree. Cheers -- Samir धर्म 01:37, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
