Meyerosuchus

Meyerosuchus is an extinct genus of mastodonsauroidean temnospondyl. Fossils have been found from the Early Triassic Hardegsen Formation in southern Germany. "Meyerosuchus" is present in late Olenekian deposits of the Middle Buntsandstein. The type species "M. fuerstenberganus" was named in 1966, although remains have been known since 1855. "Meyerosuchus" is closely related to "Stenotosaurus"; both genera are grouped in the family Stenotosauridae and the two genera may even be synonymous.
