Raemeotherium is an extinct genus of diprotodont marsupial from the late Oligocene Namba Formation of South Australia. It was much smaller than other diprotodonts, approximately the size of a lamb, and comparatively gracile. It is usually placed within the Zygomaturinae, but because the upper third premolar is unknown doubt remains about its affinities.
