Bagualia (meaning "wild horse"), is an extinct genus of eusauropod dinosaur, from the Early Jurassic (Middle Toarcian) Epoch in what is now the Chubut Province of Argentina. The type species, B. alba, was formally described in 2020. Bagualia represents the oldest definitive Eusauropod, and due to the completeness of its material it represents one of the most important taxa for understanding the early evolution of the group.
