Pedeticosaurus is an extinct genus of crocodylomorph from the Clarens Formation (Early Jurassic) of South Africa.

The type species Pedeticosaurus leviseuri was named by Egbert Cornelis Nicolaas van Hoepen in 1915[1] on the basis of a mold of a mostly complete skeleton found in a quarry near Rosendal, Free State.

The mold preserves most of the right half of the skeleton including the skull, ribs, dorsal vertebrae, forelimbs and hindlimbs, but not the tail.

[2] Paleontologist A. D. Walker erected a new group called Pedeticosauria in 1968,[4] which he named after Pedeticosaurus and is now considered equivalent to Sphenosuchia.

[2] Paleontologists C. E. Gow and James Kitching of the Bernard Price Institute for Palaeontological Research referred a second skeleton to Pedeticosaurus in 1988.
