Dianzhongia /diɛnˈdʒʊŋɡiə/ is an extinct genus of tritylodont therapsids from the Sinemurian (Early Jurassic) of Yunnan, China.[1] Only partial cranial remains from the Zhangjiawa locality of the Lufeng Formation can so far be attributed to this animal.[2] It may be synonymous with the related genus Lufengia.[1]
