Baurusuidae is a Gondwanan family of mesoeucrocodylians that lived during the Late Cretaceous. It was a clade of terrestrial hypercarnivorous crocodilians, currently known from South America (Argentina and Brazil) and India. Baurusuchidae is defined as the common ancestors of "Baurusuchus" and "Stratiotosuchus" and all their descendants.Carvalho IS, Campos ACA, Nobre PH. 2005.
