诺托鳄龙属（学名：Notochampsa）是种已灭绝鳄形超目，是原鳄亚目的一属^[1]，化石被发现于南非的卡鲁超群的艾略特组上层、以及克莱伦斯组（Clarens Formation）下层，地质年代相当于侏罗纪早期^[2]^[3]^[4]。

在1904年，罗伯特·布鲁姆（Robert Broom）叙述、命名这些化石，模式种是伊氏诺托鳄龙（N. istedana）^[5]。同时，布鲁姆还命名第二个种，长足诺托鳄龙（N. longipes）。在1924年，长足诺托鳄龙被建立为新属，红鳄龙属（Erythrochampsa）^[6]。

诺托鳄龙科（Notochampsidae）名称来自于诺托鳄龙属，近年学界较少使用诺托鳄龙科，本科普遍被认为可能是原鳄科的异名^[7]。在过去历史中，诺托鳄龙科曾经包含：佩德弋鳄、原鳄、Dyoplax、Platyognathus^[8]，以及直鳄、Microchampsa^[9]。诺托鳄龙曾经被归类于喙头鳄亚目^[10]。
