Romerodus was a genus of eugeneodont from the family Caseodontidae. It contains just a single species, R. orodontus. The genus name honors paleontologist Alfred Romer.
Description
The appearance of Romerodus was like a caseodontid.[1] The gill arches may have supported either separated, shark-like gill slits or a single chimaera-like operculum (gill cover).[1]
