Taxonomy and phylogeny
In the 2000s, phylogenetic analysis has shown that Suchodus is a distinct metriorhynchid genus.
S. durobrivensis was originally the type species of the genus Suchodus, but it was regarded as a junior synonym of Metriorhynchus by Andrews, 1913. It's the only known valid species of the genus.
