Mansourasaurus is the most complete land-living vertebrate from the last 30 million years of the Age of Dinosaurs in Africa.1

Its skeleton includes parts of the skull, which is very rare for sauropods.1

Mansourasaurus is closely related to titanosaurs from Europe and Asia, showing that dinosaurs could walk between Africa and Europe.1

It lived about 83 to 72 million years ago, during the Campanian age.2

The name honors Mansoura University, where the research team worked.1
