Palacrodon is an extinct genus of Triassic reptile with a widespread distribution. It was initially described from teeth collected in Early Triassic deposits in South Africa, and later reported from the Early Triassic of Antarctica[1][2] and the Late Triassic of Arizona.[3] Although previously considered an early rhynchocephalian, it is currently considered to be a non-saurian neodiapsid.[2]
