Borogovia (meaning "borogoves") is an extinct genus of troodontid theropod dinosaur that lived in Mongolia during the Late Cretaceous period. Discovered in 1971 and described in 1987, fossils of this dinosaur were found in the Nemegt Formation, which housed popular known dinosaurs like Tarbosaurus, Nemegtosaurus, and Saichania. It was also considered to be a possible specimen of Saurornithoides by 1982 before being referred to be a new species. The name is derived from the fantasy creatures called "borogoves" in the Lewis Carroll poem "Jabberwocky" in Through the Looking-Glass.
