''Sintocephalus'' is an extinct genus of dicynodont therapsid from the Late Permian of South Africa. Fossils are known from the ''Cistecephalus'' Assemblage Zone of the Beaufort Group. The type species of ''Sintocephalus'', ''S. alticeps'', was first named in 1913 as a species of ''Dicynodon''. The genus was erected in 1934, but in subsequent years its species were often regarded as members of other dicynodont genera. ==Description== Compared to other dicynodonts, ''Sintocephalus'' is distinguished by the thickeness and upward curve of its temporal arch behind the eyes. It also has a sharply sloped snout, large eye sockets, and tusks that are positioned forward in the upper jaw. The intertemporal region at the top of the skull between the two temporal fenestrae is very wide.
