Abelisauridae, translating to "Abel's lizards," represents a clade of ceratosaurian theropod dinosaurs that flourished during the Cretaceous period, also referred to as the Kem Kem Abelisaur. The genus Abelisaurus, first identified and described by Argentine paleontologists in 1985, was the inaugural member of this group of predatory theropods, which was predominantly distributed across southern continents such as South America and Africa. Abelisaurus is considered a medium to large theropod, and analysis of fossilized remains from Morocco indicates an estimated weight of approximately 2,000 kg. As basal representatives of their clade, these dinosaurs coexisted with other notable large theropods of the region and era, including Carcharodontosaurus and Spinosaurus.
