Patagosaurus (meaning "Patagonian lizard") was a large herbivorous dinosaur from the long-necked group Sauropoda. It reached a length of 18 meters. Similar to other primitive eusauropods, it was rather heavily built and similar to Cetiosaurus in general appearance. It is known from a dozen individuals, though some referred material may belong to another related dinosaur genus. It lived during the Callovian of the Middle Jurassic (163-161 mya) in what is now Argentina. Other Argentinian dinosaurs living approximately at the same time were Piatnitzkysaurus, Condorraptor and Amygdalodon.
