Rebbachisaurus (meaning "Aït Rebbach lizard") is a genus of sauropod dinosaur of the superfamily Diplodocoidea, that lived during the Late Cretaceous period in Africa and possibly also South America about 99-97 million years ago. Remains attributed to Rebbachisaurus have been found in Morocco, Niger, Algeria, Tunisia, and possibly also Argentina (if Rayososaurus is the same animal as Rebbachisaurus), although only the Moroccan remains can be referred to the genus without doubt
