Oudenodonis an extinctgenusofdicynodont.It was common throughout southernAfricaduring the LatePermian.Several species ofOudenodonare known.^[2]BothO. bainii,thetype species,andO. grandisare known fromSouth Africa.^[3]^[4]Specimens ofO. luangwensishave been found fromZambia.^[5]One species,O. sakamenensis,is the only Permiantherapsidyet described fromMadagascar.^[6]It is thetype genusof thefamily Oudenodontidae,which includes members such asTropidostoma.
