==Summary==
Smilosuchus is a genus of leptosuchomorph parasuchid, a group of phytosaurs, which were large reptiles similar to crocodiles but not closely related; phytosaurs displayed convergent evolution with crocodiles and occupied the niche of semi-aquatic ambush predators, especially based on the positioning of their eyes and nostrils. Three species of this genus have been identified: Smilosuchus gregorii, Smilosuchus adamanensis, and Smilosuchus lithodendrorum. The ridges on the snout varied among the three species.
The name Smilosuchus means "chisel crocodile." With a maximum length of 12 meters, Smilosuchus is among the largest known phytosaurs. It lived 221.5–205.6 million years ago, during the late Triassic, in present day North America. This creature inhabited streams and swamps where it would reside and hunt. It would go extinct by the end of the Triassic, with its niche eventually being taken up by crocodilians.
