Elosuchus is an extinct genus of neosuchian crocodyliform that lived during the Early Cretaceous of what is now North Africa (Morocco, Algeria and Niger). The genus contains two species, E. cherifiensis from Algeria and Morocco, formerly described as a species of Thoracosaurus by Lavocat, and E. felixi from Niger. The genus has been recognized to be separate from Thoracosaurus by Broin in 2002, who created the family Elosuchidae that also contains the genus Stolokrosuchus from Niger. Elosuchus had an elongated snout like a gharial and was probably a fully aquatic animal.
