Millerosaurus is an extinct genus of millerettid reptiles from the Late Permian (Changhsingian stage) of South Africa. [1] Jenkins et al. (2025) recognized both species of Millerosaurus as juvenile individuals of Milleretta , since the observed anatomical differences can be explained by changes seen through ontogeny in the latter. Under this reinterpretation, Millerosaurus would be a junior synonym of Milleretta. [2]
