Omomys carteri ist ein ausgestorbenener Primat aus der Familie Omomyidae (Tribus Omomyini innerhalb der Unterfamilie Omomyinae), der im Eozän in Nordamerika lebte.
Das Typusexemplar mit der Bezeichnung A.N.S. No. 10335 ist ein rechter Unterkieferast (Ramus) mit zwei Prämolaren (P3-4) und einem Molaren (M2).
Basierend auf der Größe und Morphologie der Zähne schätzt man das Körpergewicht des kleinen Primaten auf 410,3 Gramm. Es lassen sich auch Rückschlüsse auf die Lebensweise (Ökologie) ziehen: Omomys carteri war ein baumlebender Insektenfresser.
