There are two mudskippers sitting on the snout of the croc. One is tail down head up on the upper jaw, with its back to the camera. Second is just in front of the eye.
Ignore the crocodile.

Arizona Bark Scorpion (Centruroides sculpturatus)Observer
jaykellerDescription
Scorpions with two metasomae (tails) are extremely rare, with one estimate I saw as one in every 5,000 specimens. This specimen is approximately 3cm long head to stinger and is being maintained in captivity to study its behavior.
I found this using a black light flashlight with BJ Stacey (@finatic) at the Carrie Nation Trailhead parking lot at Madera Canyon, Arizona.
Read a detailed account of this specimen's discovery and observation updates at the journal post linked below:

Can anyone suggest an ID for the beetle or other wood-boring insect that was at work here when the tree was alive? I don't know the tree species.

Local name for this is "nghiến". Wood from this tree is used to make mallets and beating surfaces for manually pulping Broussonetia papyrifera phloem fiber in artisanal papermaking traditions (shown here). Identifiable by its hard, dense, chocolate-brown wood.
