OverviewPlease note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Lourinhasaurus (meaning Lourinha lizard ) was a sauropod dinosaur genus hailing from Late Jurassic strata from two localities in Estremadura, Portugal. It was described by Dantas et al. in 1998. Its type species is L. alenquerensis, named for the locality of Alenquer. The first find in 1957, a partial fossil skeleton found near Alenquer, was dubbed Apatosaurus alenquerensis by Lapparent and Zbyszewski. However, the find of another partial skeleton, including a tooth and 100 gastroliths, in co-eval strata near the town of Lourinha in 1983, allowed the identification of the fossils as a distinct form from Apatosaurus, hence the generic name referring the new locality while the specific descriptor was carried over from the old designation.
