Rhoetosaurus

Rhoetosaurus brownei

Rhoetosaurus (meaning "Rhoetus lizard", after a titan in Greek mythology) is a genus of sauropod dinosaur from the Late Jurassic (Oxfordian) Walloon Coal Measures of what is now eastern Australia. Rhoetosaurus is estimated to have been about 15 metres (49 ft) long, weighing about 9 tonnes (8.9 long tons; 9.9 short tons). Subsequent authors have sometimes misspelled the name: Rhaetosaurus (de Lapparent & Laverat, 1955); Rheteosaurus (Yadagiri, Prasad & Satsangi, 1979)
