Novaculadon (meaning "razor tooth") is an extinct genus of plagiaulacid multituberculate mammal known from the Early Cretaceous (Berriasian age) Lulworth Formation of England. The genus contains a single species, Novaculadon mirabilis, known from a single left dentary (lower jaw bone) including the incisor, premolars 2-4, and two molar alveoli. The dentary is particularly robust in Novaculadon.
