Pantylus (from , 'all' and , 'knob') is an extinct microsaurian tetrapod from the Permian period of North America. thumb|left|Pantylus cordatus

Pantylus was probably a largely terrestrial animal, judging from its well-built legs. It was about long, and resembled a lizard with a large skull and short limbs. It had numerous blunt teeth, and probably chased after invertebrate prey.
