Excellent! Thecachampsa and Gavialosuchus are probably the same crocodile, with different folks preferring one genus name over the other. The Calvert folks have all adopted Thecachampsa. Doesn't matter - point is, it's the Oligo-Miocene croc that's common here in the southeastern Cenozoic.

I contacted David Schwimmer. He corrected his ID to Thecachampsa as well.

Looking forward to meeting my fellow Singaporean collectors! Do PM me if you are a Singaporean, or an overseas fossil-collector coming here for a holiday!
