Maiopatagium ("less patagium" from Ancient Greek μείων (meíōn), “less” + Modern Latin patagium, “patagium”) is an extinct genus of gliding euharamiyids which existed in Asia during the Jurassic period. It possessed a patagium between its limbs and presumably had similar lifestyle to living flying squirrels and colugos. The type species is Maiopatagium furculiferum, which was described from the Tiaojishan Formation by Zhe-Xi Luo in 2017; it lived in what is now the Liaoning region of China during the late Jurassic (Oxfordian age).^[1]Maiopatagium and Vilevolodon, described concurrently, offer clues to the ways various synapsids have taken to the skies over evolutionary time scales.^[2] A second species, M. sibiricum, was described from the Bathonian aged Itat Formation in western Siberia, Russia in 2019^[3]
