Charruodon is an extinct genus of cynodonts which existed in the Hyperodapedon Assemblage Zone of the Santa Maria Formation in the Paraná Basin in southeastern Brazil during the Late Triassic period (Carnian) age. The genus contains only the type species Charruodon tetracuspidatus.[1] Only one specimen is known, and is of uncertain provenance.[2]
