Archaeovaranus (meaning "ancient Varanus") is genus of varanid lizard from the early Eocene (Ypresian) of Hubei Province, China. The genus contains a single species, Archaeovaranus lii, known from a nearly complete skeleton. The holotype, which includes an intact skull, is associated but disarticulated. Archaeovaranus fills a gap in the varanid fossil record, as it represents a stem-varanid from the early Eocene of East Asia, and is the closest known relative of Varanus.

- Archaeovaranus lii — викопний вид ящірок родини варанових (Varanidae). Описаний у 2022 році. Archaeovaranus заповнює прогалину в літописі скам'янілостей варанів, оскільки він представляє стовбурову групу варанід з раннього еоцену Східної Азії, близько споріднену з родом Varanus. (uk)
