Arganarhinus (meaning "Argana (Morocco) snout") is an extinct genus of phytosaur known from the late Triassic period (Middle Carnian stage) of Argana Basin in Morocco. It is known from a skull which is housed at the Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle. It was first named as a species of Paleorhinus in 1977b by Jean Michel Dutuit^[1] and it was named as a separate genus by Long and Murry in 1995. The type species is the original Paleorhinus magnoculus and the combinatio nova is Arganarhinus magnoculus. Its closest relative was Paleorhinus.^[2]
