Andrianavoay

Andrianavoay (meaning "noble crocodile" in Malagasy) is an extinct genus of teleosauroid from the Bathonian (in the Middle Jurassic) Kandreho Formation of Madagascar.
The type species, "A. baroni", was originally named "Steneosaurus" "baroni" by ET Newton in 1893 on the basis of a partial skull listed as "NHMUK PV R 1999", and an associated osteoderm from Andranosamonta, Madagascar. In her unpublished 2019 thesis, Michela Johnson coined the nomen ("ex dissertatione") "Andrianavoay" for "S. baroni". The genus name was published in 2020.
