Bolotridon is an extinct genus of cynodonts. It was renamed from its original genus designation of Tribolodon by Harry Govier Seeley in 1895, which was already occupied by a genus of cyprinid fish named in 1883 by Sauvage. The name Bolotridon was coined by Brian W. Coad in a 1977 publication as an anagram of Tribolodon.[1]
