Really unsure here. There were stripes down the side rather than spots but my old copy of Bill Branches field guide says the spots sometimes fuse into stripes?

Central African Slender-snouted Crocodile (Mecistops leptorhynchus)Observer
thierryachinkoprojectDescription
This observation of a Central African Slender-snouted Crocodile in the Ngawa catchment confirms that this species occurs in the Chinko River system, after its occurrence was already confirmed in the Mbari River catchment (unfortunately also by a killed specimen). Many thanks to Narcisse Bangali for documenting this case. The ongoing destructive poaching on the borders of the Chinko Conservation Area demonstrates the need to establish a community-based village hunting zone where sustainable hunting is promoted through joint management of the area between local hunters, governmental agents and partners like African Parks.
