''Buginbaatar'' is an extinct genus of mammal from the Upper Cretaceous of Mongolia. It is a member of the extinct order Multituberculata, within the suborder Cimolodonta and family Cimolomyidae. It lived towards the end of the Mesozoic era. The genus ''Buginbaatar'' was named by Kielan-Jaworowska Z. and Sochava A.V. in 1969 based on the remains of a single species. Remains of this species, dubbed ''Buginbaatar clarki'', were found in Upper Cretaceous strata of Bügiyn Tsav in Mongolia. This is the only known Upper Cretaceous Mongolian multituberculate not to belong to the family Djadochtatherioidea. Remains are incomplete and the assignment of ''B.'' to the Cimolomyidae is tentative, (Kielan-Jaworowska & Hurum 2001, p. 408). ==References== * Kielan-Jaworowska & Sochava (1969), "The first multituberculate from the uppermost Cretaceous of the Gobi Desert (Mongolia)".
