Abstract: This paper describes a new genus and species of Muridae, Extrarius orhuni gen. nov. and sp. from the Quaternary terrestrial deposits of the Denizli Basin (South-western Turkey). The circular island shaped neoenterostyle in the lingual part of M1 and complete stephanodonty show a unique combination of apomorphic characters. These initial fossils provide a starting point, and more studies will surely provide more details on the origins of this taxon and its relationship to other taxa in the wider region. © March 2017 society of vertebrate paleontology.
