The paper introduces a new crocodylomorph genus and species, *Junggarsuchus shensi*, discovered in the Shishugou Formation of Xinjiang, China. The holotype is an articulated anterior half of a skeleton, including a nearly complete skull. The diagnosis of *Junggarsuchus* is based on several unique morphological features, such as a longitudinal concavity on the ventrolateral surface of the jugal, broadened dorsal edge of the surangular, and enlarged anterior maxillary teeth. The phylogenetic analysis of 55 characters from the skull and postcranial skeleton of 17 taxa supports the classification of *Junggarsuchus* within the Crocodylomorpha. The study also discusses the evolutionary significance of *Junggarsuchus* and its implications for understanding the early evolution of crocodylomorphs.The paper introduces a new crocodylomorph genus and species, *Junggarsuchus shensi*, discovered in the Shishugou Formation of Xinjiang, China.
