Gorgetosuchus is an extinct genus of aetosaur from the Late Triassic of the North Carolina, represented by the type species Gorgetosuchus pekinensis. It is mainly known from osteoderms, including the front half of an articulated carapace.[1] Gorgotesuchus is typically considered a basal desmatosuchin,[1][2] though alternative interpretations exist.[3]
