Lyra (meaning "harp") is an extinct genus of giraffid artiodactyl ungulates from the Miocene Chinji Formation of Pakistan.

[1] The Lyra fossil material was discovered in sediments of the Chinji Formation in the Siwalik Hills of Pakistan.

The holotype specimen, YGSP 47357, was discovered in 1994 and comprises a partial skull, including the braincase, basicranium, occipital, and ossicones ("horn-like" structures in giraffids).

Four additional ossicone fragments from other localities in the Chinji Formation were assigned to Lyra as paratypes.

[1] In 2024, Ríos & Solounias described Lyra sherkana as a new genus and species of giraffids based on these fossil remains.
