Dzungarisuchus is an extinct monospecific genus of crocodile. Fossils have been found from Xinjiang, China of late Eocene age.[1] The only remains that have been found have been isolated postcranial and jaw fragments. As a result, the genus is poorly known. All material yet found has been referable to the type species, Dzungarisuchus manacensis.
