Mochlodon is a genus of iguanodont dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous. It was at first believed to be a species of Iguanodon, but was later placed in Rhabdodon. More recently, with the description of Zalmoxes, it was tentatively reinstated as a separate genus. Its fossils were found in Austria, the type specimen being a dentary and two vertebrae (first described in 1871). The type species is Mochlodon suessi.
