Ulemica is an extinct genus of venjukoviid therapsid. It was a basal member of the suborder Anomodontia that existed during the Middle Permian in Russia. The type species, U. invisa, was assigned to the genus Venjukovia prior to being placed within its own genus in 1996.[1] This small anomonodont is only known from a partial skull.[2]
