Induszalim (meaning "Indus [River] cruel one") is an extinct genus of mesoeucrocodylian reptile from the Pab Formation of Balochistan, Pakistan.^[1] The type, and only species, I. bala, was named and described in 2006.^[2]

Discovery and naming

The holotype consists of a rostrum,^[3] two caudal vertebrae, a left tibia, a left fibula, left ulna, left humerus, partial left femur, and ilium^[4] which was discovered in the Alam 19 locality of the Pab Formation of Pakistan,^[3] probably around 2001. The species Induszalim bala was named and described by Malkani (2006).^[2]

The rostrum which is now allied with the holotype was originally referred to the theropod dinosaur "Vitakridrinda sulaimani",^[2] which was later referred to Induszalim.^[3]

Classification

Malkani (2015) referred Induszalim to Mesoeucrocodylia.^[3]
