Reiszerpeton is an extinct genus of dissorophid temnospondyl known from the Early Permian Archer City Formation of Texas.

[1] A reappraisal of the holotype of T. texensis and a number of other referred specimens by Maddin et al. (2013)[2] noted a number of differences from both T. texensis and amphibamiforms more broadly that suggested affinities with the Dissorophidae.

This was confirmed by a phylogenetic analysis, which placed it as the sister taxon to the Eucacopinae (Cacops + Zygosaurus + Kamacops).

Reiszerpeton is known only from the type species, R. renascentis, which was named for Canadian paleontologist Robert Reisz.
