Labidosaurus is an extinct genus of anapsid reptile from the Permian period. It was about 75 cm (2 ft 6 in) long.
Labidosaurus was primitive and heavily built, resembling a lizard with a large head. It fed on insects which it killed with its sharp, conical teeth. Labidosaurus had, unlike other typical captorhinids, a single row of teeth in its jaws.
