The Abelisauridae family, meaning "Abel's lizards," comprises ceratosaurian theropod dinosaurs that flourished during the Cretaceous period and are also known as the Kem Kem Abelisaurs. The genus Abelisaurus, first named by Argentine paleontologists in 1985, represents the earliest known member of this carnivorous group, which was prevalent across southern continents like South America and Africa. These medium to large theropods, including fossils found in Morocco, are estimated to have weighed around 2,000 kg. As basal members of their group, they lived alongside other prominent predators of the era, such as Carcharodontosaurus and Spinosaurus.
