Glaucosaurus is an extinct genus of edaphosaurid synapsid from the Early Permian of Texas. The type species, G. megalops, was named in 1915.
==Classification== Glaucosaurus is known only from its holotype, a partial skull and jaw. Almost all of the sutures have been obliterated. Nevertheless, there is broad agreement that Glaucosaurus is not only an edaphosaurid, but a close relative of Edaphosaurus itself.
