Kuwajimalla kagaensis is an extinct species of plant-eating lizard from the Early Cretaceous Kuwajima Formation in Japan. The genus contains a single species, Kuwajimalla kagaensis, which was described in 2008 as being a member of the clade Polyglyphanodontia (=Borioteiioidea).[1] In 2019, Alifanov reinterpreted it as a member of the family Dorsetisauridae.[2]
