Pseudolagosuchus (meaning "false Lagosuchus") is the name given to a genus of dinosauromorph from the Middle Triassic. It was a small reptile which was probably about one meter long, one foot (0.3 m) high, and weighed approximately five pounds (2 kg). It lived in what is now Argentina. Pseudolagosuchus is known only through pubis, femur, tibia, and vertebrae.
