Riebeeckosaurus is an extinct genus of tapinocephalian therapsids from the Guadalupian epoch of Tapinocephalus Assemblage Zone, lower Beaufort Beds of the Karoo, in South Africa. Only two skulls are known from the type genus.
It was a herbivorous, medium-sized ( in length, in mass) dinocephalian It had a relatively short snout.
In 2013, Saniye Güven and colleagues proposed that the genus Avenantia is synonymous with Riebeeckosaurus, representing an immature individual.
