Magnapaulia is a genus of herbivorous lambeosaurine hadrosaurid dinosaurs known from the Latest Cretaceous Baja California, of northwestern Mexico. It contains a single species, Magnapaulia laticaudus.[2] Magnapaulia was first described in 1981 as a possible species of Lambeosaurus by William J. Morris,[3] and was given its own genus in 2012 by Prieto-Márquez and colleagues.[2]
