Strigosuchus is an extinct genus of crurotarsan from the Early Jurassic of China. Remains have been found from the Lower Lufeng Series in Yunnan.[1] The genus was named by paleontologist D.J. Simmons in 1965 with the type species being S. licinus.[2] Although originally classified as an ornithosuchid, the fragmentary holotype specimen of Strigosuchus has been suggested to be from a sphenosuchian rather than an ornithosuchid.[3] Other Lufeng crocodylomorphs found in association with Strigosuchus include the protosuchian Platyognathus and the sphenosuchian Dibothrosuchus.[4]
