Abdallahsaurus, meaning "Abdallah's lizard", is a genus of sauropod dinosaur that lived during the late Jurassic Period (Kimmeridgian–Tithonian stages). It was originally named as a possible synonym species of Giraffatitan (G. fraasi). The holotype "Skeleton R" discovered in Tendaguru, Tanzania. The skeleton contains a radial bone, an ulna, a manus, a pubis, an ischium and probably a fibula.[1] It is now considered a synonym of Giraffatitan.
