Abstract
A new genus and species of dinocephalian is described, based on a skull, teeth, and lower jaw fragment from the Upper Permian of south Cisuralian U.S.S.R. The new dinocephalian belongs to a group of carnivorous brithopodids which are widespread in the Cisuralian region. On the basis of morphological characteristics it is concluded that the new genus is closely related to Syodon and Titanophoneus, representatives of one of the late stages of development of the dinocephalian faunas of the U.S.S.R.
