''Azendohsaurus'' (meaning "Azendoh lizard") was a genus of herbivorous archosauromorph from the Late Triassic Period of Morocco. The type species (''A. laaroussi'') is known only from a partial jaw fragment (with some teeth) from Morocco. ''Azendohsaurus'' used to be regarded as a dinosaur, as either an ornithischian or a prosauropod. New research (including new material discovered in Madagascar) suggests that ''Azendohsaurus'' is not a dinosaur at all, but a non-archosauriform archosauromorph that independently evolved many craniodental characters similar to herbivorous dinosaurs. The type specimen, ''A. laaroussi'', was described by J. M. Dutuit in 1972. A second species, ''A. madagaskarensis'', was described in 2010. ''A. laaroussi'' is known only from teeth and jaws, which have derived features of several dinosaur groups, such as a leaf-like shape and denticles.〔 However, ''A. madagaskarensis'' is known from more complete skeletal material, some of which show more basal archosauromorph characteristics. ==References==
