Reconstruction of Dyrosaurus, another long-snouted and marine dyrosaurid crocodylomorph Persson classified Aigialosuchus as a true crocodile, placing it within the subfamily Crocodylinae. He based this on the fact that the foremost part of the snout of Aigialosuchus was bounded off from the rest of the head by a paired notch and broadened. Persson also noted that since Aigialosuchus is quite poorly known, detailed comparisons with other crocodylines was impossible. Persson's classification of Aigialosuchus as a crocodyline is no longer considered likely.

That sense led to the phrase home front, which first appeared in 1919.

By the end of the 19th century, a raised forecastle had become a typical feature on warships again, in an attempt to keep forward gun positions from getting unacceptably wet on heavy seas. In addition the forecastle may provide additional crew's quarters as in the past, and may contain essential machinery such as the anchor windlass. A disadvantage of such a design is the structural weakness at the forecastle 'break' (the rear end of the forecastle with the main deck behind and below) relative to a flush deck structure. Some sailing ships and many modern non-sail ships have no forecastle as such at all but the name is still used to indicate the foremost part of the upper deck – although often called the foredeck – and for any crew's quarters in the bow of the ship, even if below the main deck.
