Procaimanoidea ("Before Caiman-forms") is an extinct genus of alligatorid from the Eocene of North America.

It was named posthumously in 1946 by Charles W. Gilmore; the type species is P. utahensis, from the Uintan (middle Eocene) of Utah.

It is based on USNM 15996, a nearly complete skull and partial left hind leg.

[4] Procaimanoidea was a small alligatorid, and slightly heterodont, the last four teeth on each side of the jaws having blunt tips.

[2] Recent studies have consistently resolved Procaimanoidea as a member of Alligatorinae, although its relative placement is disputed, as shown by the cladograms below.
