Caseodus

Caseodus is an extinct genus of eugeneodont from the Carboniferous of the United States (Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, South Dakota) and the Lower Triassic of Canada (British Columbia). It was medium-sized, measuring just 1–1.5 m (3.3–4.9 ft) in length. It is one of the few eugeneodont taxa that survived the Permian–Triassic extinction event.

Caseodus is named after paleoichthyologist Gerald Case.
