Uruyiella is an extinct genus of laidleriid temnospondyl from Permian or Triassic deposits of Buena Vista Formation of Uruguay. It was first named by Graciela Piñeiro, Claudia Marsicano and Nora Lorenzo in 2007, from a nearly complete skull. The type species is Uruyiella liminea and it is the only close relative of the enigmatic Early Triassic Laidleria.
