Koiloskiosaurus is an extinctgenus of procolophonidparareptile from the Early Triassic of Germany. The type and only species Koiloskiosaurus coburgensis was named by German paleontologist Friedrich von Huene in 1911 from a layer of rocks called the Buntsandstein. Koiloskiosaurus coburgensis is known from a block of three fossilized skeletons preserved together. Given that the skeletons are oriented in the same direction, the individuals most likely died in a burrow.[1] Features of the skeletons of Koiloskiosaurus and other procolophonids, such as robust limbs and solid, immovable skull bones, are also taken as evidence that they were burrowers.[2]
