Caseodus is an extinct genus of eugeneodont from the Carboniferous of the United States (Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, South Dakota) and the Lower Triassic of Canada (British Columbia).[1] It was medium-sized, measuring just 1–1.5 m (3.3–4.9 ft) in length.[2] It is one of the few eugeneodont taxa that survived the Permian–Triassic extinction event.[2]
Caseodus is named after paleoichthyologist Gerald Case.[3]
