''Sloanbaatar'' is a mammal genus that lived in Mongolia during the Upper Cretaceous. It lived at the same time as the dinosaurs. This animal was a member of the also extinct order Multituberculata within the suborder Cimolodonta and the family Sloanbaataridae. The genus ''Sloanbaatar'' was named by Kielan-Jaworowska, Z. in 1970. The name means "Sloan's hero", in honour of paleontologist R.E. Sloan. Fossil remains of the only known species, ''Sloanbaatar mirabillis'', have been found in the Coniacian - Santonian (Upper Cretaceous)-age strata of the Djadokhta Formation in Mongolia. == References == * Kielan-Jaworowska (1970), "New Upper Cretaceous multituberculate genera from Bayn Dzak, Gobi Desert", ''Palaentologica Polonica'' 21, p.35-49. * Kielan-Jaworowska, Z. & Hurum, J.H.
