Caipirasuchus is an extinct genus of sphagesaurid notosuchians known from the Late Cretaceous of northern São Paulo State, southeastern Brazil. The type species, C. paulistanus, was named in 2011.[1] A second species, C. montealtensis, was referred to Caipirasuchus in 2013 after having been named in 2008 as a species of Sphagesaurus.[2] A third species, C. stenognathus, was described in 2014.[3] A fourth species, C. mineirus, was described in 2018.[4] A fifth species, C. attenboroughi, was named in 2021 in honour of David Attenborough.[5]
