Description: Hypselosaurus is a genus of sauropod dinosaur that lived during the Late Cretaceous period in what is now France. It is known from a single partial skeleton found in the region of Aquitaine, which includes a nearly complete skull, several vertebrae, and part of a hindlimb. The skull of Hypselosaurus was long and narrow, with a small crest on the top of the head. The teeth were flat and spoon-shaped, which suggests that the animal was a herbivore. It is estimated to have been about 20-30 meters (65-98 feet) long and weighed around 10-20 tons. Hypselosaurus is considered to be closely related to other sauropods such as Diplodocus and Camarasaurus.
