== Discovery and naming == The genus Ngwevu is known from only one specimen, BP/1/4779, which is stored in the Environmental Studies Institute of the University of the Witwatersrand, in Johannesburg, South Africa. The holotype specimen was discovered in 1978 by James William Kitching in the Tevrede Farm, located in Fouriesburg district, South Africa. The strata which preserved the specimen was located in the Clarens Formation, which is Pliensbachian-early Toarcian in age. The specimen was initially considered a specimen of the genus Massospondylus but in 2019 was designated as a new genus and species Ngwevu ntloko (; directly from Xhosa 'ngwevu' and 'intloko' meaning "grey skull").
