Microurania is an extinct genus of therapsids from the Middle Permian first named and described by Mikhaïl Ivakhnenko.[1] It is known from a single partial skull found in the region of Orenburg, Russia. According to Kammerer, 2011, it likely represents the remains of a juvenile dinocephalian.[2]
Microurania was small, with a skull of about 5 cm in length, though the postorbital portion of the skull is missing.[1] It has a leaf-like postcanine tooth similar to the one on Phthinosuchus. It was probably omnivorous.
