Zholsuchus

Wikipedia Abstract

Zholsuchus is a genus of crocodyliform that may have been a goniopholidid mesoeucrocodylian, but is only known from scanty material (a right premaxilla, one of the bones of the tip of the snout). This specimen was found in the Coniacian-age Upper Cretaceous Bissekty Formation of Dzharakhuduk, Uzbekistan. Zholsuchus was described in 1989 by Lev Nesov and colleagues. The type species is Z. procevus. A 2000 review by Glenn Storrs and Mikhail Efimov designated Zholsuchus a dubious name.
