}}

Lammidhania is an extinct genus of the perissodactyl stem of early proboscidean (elephant-like) mammals, which lived from the early to middle Eocene period. Its fossil remains were discovered in 1940 in the Chorlakki locality of the Punjab province of Pakistan.

It is the smallest known anthracobunid, and was formerly classified with proboscideans.

Cooper et al. (2014) regard most specimens referred to the genus as belonging to Anthracobune.^[1]
