<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="dromaius-arleyekweke"></dinofyi-dinosaur>†Dromaius arleyekweke is an extinct dwarf emu from the Pleistocene of central Australia, described from Arleya Creek fossil deposits. Significantly smaller than the living emu, this ratite likely inhabited arid interior Australia. Its discovery adds to the record of insular and continental gigantism/dwarfism in Australian megafaunal birds before the Holocene extinctions.
