Turiasaurus ("Turia lizard") is a genus represented by a single species of turiasaurian sauropod dinosaur, which lived from the Late Jurassic period in what is now Europe. It was formely considered to have survived to the Early Cretaceous, but that was disproven. An interesting fact is that Turiasaurus is believed to be the largest dinosaur ever found in Europe, measuring 21 to 30 meters and weighing 30 to 50 tons. However, the length of its skull is only about 70 centimeters.
