Carcharodontosaurus is a genus of large Carcharodontosaurid theropod dinosaur that existed during the Cenomanian stage of the mid-Cretaceous Period in Northern Africa. It is currently known to include two species: C. saharicus and C. iguidensis, which are among the largest theropods, nearly as large as or even larger than Tyrannosaurus, Giganotosaurus, and Spinosaurus.
The genus Carcharodontosaurus is named after the shark genus Carcharodon meaning "jagged" or "sharp" and "teeth", and the suffix -saurus "lizard".
