Junggarsuchus (/ˌdʒəŋɡərˈsukəs/) is an extinct genus of sphenosuchian crocodylomorph from the Middle[2] or Late Jurassic[1][3] period of China. The type and only species is J. sloani. The generic name of Junggarsuchus comes from the Junggar Basin (the anglicization of Dzungar),[4] where the fossil was found, and the Greek word "souchos" meaning crocodile. The specific name, "sloani" is in honor of C. Sloan, who is credited with finding the holotype.[2]
