Laminacaris is a genus of extinct stem-group arthropods (Radiodonta) that lived during the Cambrian period. It is monotypic with a single species Laminacaris chimera, the fossil of which was described from the Chengjiang biota of China in 2018.^[1] Around the same time, two specimens that were similar or of the same species were discovered at the Kinzers Formation in Pennsylvania, USA.^[2] The first specimens from China were three frontal appendages, without the other body parts.
