English: Barapasaurus is a basal sauropod dinosaur from the Early Jurassic of India. It is one of the earliest known sauropods. Barapasaurus is known from approximately 300 bones from at least six individuals, making it one of the most completely known sauropods from the Early Jurassic. Although a very early and unspecialized sauropod, Barapasaurus shows the building plan typical for later, more derived sauropods: a long neck, short trunk, and columnar limbs which indicate an obligate quadrupedal posture. Even the size, which is estimated at approximately 14 m long and 7 t in weight, is comparable with that of later sauropods.
