Emuarius
''Emuarius'' is an extinct genus of flightless bird from Australia that lived during the early Miocene and late Oligocene. It is one of two known genera of emu. There are two known species in the genus, ''Emuarius gidju'' and ''Emuarius guljaruba''. The birds in this genus are known as emuwaries. Some Australian fossils initially believed to be from emus were recognized to represent a distinct genus, ''Emuarius'', which had a cassowary-like skull and femur and an emu-like lower leg and foot.〔Boles, W.E. 1992.
