Bondoceras is genus of burnetiid therapsid discovered in Zambia and first described in 2023. The only species described is Bondoceras bulborhynchus.[1]

The genus name Bondoceras is derived from "Bondo", a village near the fossil localities, and "ceras", ancient Greek for horn. The species name bulborhynchus refers to the distinctive hemispherical median nasal boss present on the snout.[1]

Bondoceras was collected from several localities southwest of Chamwe, Gwembe District, Southern Province, Zambia. The presence of tapinocephalid teeth near the localities suggests a Guadalupian age for the fossils.[1]
