The titanosuchids were carnivorous to omnivorous (herbivorous?) tapinocephalid dinocephalians. As with other tapinocephalids, they had thick-skulls probably for head-butting. They appeared in the Middle Permian. They had large canine teeth, and their incisors were very strong. Titanosuchids are related to other dinocephalians, such as the tapinocephalidae - a group the includes Moschops. The most famous titanosuchids are Jonkeria and Titanosuchus. Like all other dinocephalians, they went extinct in the Permian-Triassic extinction.
