Extinct genus of reptiles

Angistorhinopsis Temporal range: Late Norian - Rhaetian 212–201.4 Ma PreꞒ Ꞓ O S D C P T J K Pg N Scientific classification Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Reptilia Order: †Phytosauria Family: †Parasuchidae Subfamily: †Mystriosuchinae Tribe: †Mystriosuchini Genus: †Angistorhinopsis (Huene, 1922) Type species A. ruetimeyeri (Huene, 1922)

***Angistorhinopsis*** is an extinct [genus](/source/Genus) of altirostral (long-snouted) [mystriosuchin](/source/Mystriosuchini) [phytosaur](/source/Phytosaur). It was named for its supposed resemblance to *[Angistorhinus](/source/Angistorhinus)* by [Friedrich von Huene](/source/Friedrich_von_Huene) in 1922. [Fossils](/source/Fossil) have been found in Switzerland and date back to the latest [Norian](/source/Norian) and [Rhaetian](/source/Rhaetian) stages of the [Late Triassic](/source/Late_Triassic), making it the youngest known phytosaur to have existed in Europe and, along with *[Redondasaurus](/source/Redondasaurus)* from the United States, one of the last surviving members of Phytosauria before the group became extinct during the [Triassic–Jurassic extinction event](/source/Triassic%E2%80%93Jurassic_extinction_event) 199.6 million years ago.
