Shuvosauridae

Shuvosauridae is an extinct family of theropod-like pseudosuchians within the clade Poposauroidea.

Shuvosaurids existed in North America (United States) and South America (Argentina) during the Late Triassic period (late Carnian to Rhaetian stages).

Shuvosauridae was named by Sankar Chatterjee in 1993 to include the genus Shuvosaurus.

In a 2007 study Chatterjeea was demonstrated to be a junior synonym of Shuvosaurus, and the therein cladistic analysis found that Shuvosaurus, Effigia and Sillosuchus all form a closely related group.
