Lohuecosuchus (Lo Hueco Crocodile) is an extinct genus of crocodyliforms related to the current crocodiles. They lived during the Upper Cretaceous (upper Campanian-Lower Maastrichtian) in what is now Spain and southern France. It is a genus closely related to Allodaposuchus, a crocodile that lived in what is now Romania.
