Gryposuchus is an extinct genus of gavialid crocodilian. It is the type genus of the subfamily Gryposuchinae. Fossils have been found from Argentina, Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil, and the Peruvian Amazon. The genus existed from the Middle Miocene to Late Pleistocene. One recently described species, G. croizati, grew to an estimated length of 10 meters (33 feet). Its size rivaled other crocodillans, like Sarcosuchus, Purussaurus, Deinosuchus, and Rhamphosuchus.
