The Abelisauridae family—translated as "Abel’s lizards"—comprises a group of ceratosaurian theropod dinosaurs that prospered during the Cretaceous period, frequently referred to as the Kem Kem Abelisaur. The type genus Abelisaurus was formally identified and named by Argentine paleontologists in 1985. Representing the earliest members of the Abelisauridae, carnivorous theropods, this lineage was predominantly prevalent across southern landmasses, including South America and Africa. Abelisaurus is characterized as a medium to large theropod; examinations of fossilized remains from Morocco indicate individuals may have weighed around 2,000 kilograms. These basal members coexisted alongside other notable large theropods such as Carcharodontosaurus and Spinosaurus within their ecosystem.
