Shihtienfenia is an extinct genus of pareiasaurid parareptile from the Late Permian of China.
==Species== left|thumb|Holotype skull (IMMNH-PV0020) of S. completus, [[Baoding Natural History Museum]] Lee (1997) refers to S. xuecunensis as a metaspecies lacking the autapomorphies of Shihtienfenia. Tsuji & Müller (2009) seem to consider it a valid taxon for cladistic analysis, and like Lee 1997 place the two Chinese species close to Pareiasuchus.
