''Rukwasuchus'' is an extinct genus of peirosaurid mesoeucrocodylian known from the middle Cretaceous Galula Formation of southwestern Tanzania. It contains a single species, ''Rukwasuchus yajabalijekundu''. ==Discovery== ''Rukwasuchus'' is known from its holotype, RRBP 08630, a well-preserved rear part of the skull including the cranial table, braincase, and interorbital region lacking the rostrum, the front portion of the palate, both lacrimals, jugals, and quadratojugals, as well as the mandible. RRBP 08630 was collected during 2008 at Namba 2 locality (also known as RRBP 2007-02), together with the rebbachisaurid ''Rukwatitan bisepultus'' which is exclusive to this locality. Material referred to ''Rukwasuchus'' includes four isolated teeth, which came from the neighboring localities RRBP 2007-01 yielding the 3 teeth RRBP 07351, 07369, 09362, and RRBP 2009-01 yielding the tooth RRBP 09367. All specimens came from approximately 25 km south of Lake Rukwa in the Galula Study Area, Rukwa Rift Basin of southwestern Tanzania, belonging to the Namba Member of the Galula Formation which dates to the late Aptian or possibly early Cenomanian stage of the middle Cretaceous, approximately 100 mya.〔
