Ibirania (meaning "Ibirá wanderer" or "tree wanderer") is a genus of dwarf saltasaurine titanosaur dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous (Santonian to Campanian) São José do Rio Preto Formation (Bauru Basin) of Southeast Brazil. The type species is Ibirania parva.[1] It is one of the smallest sauropods known to date, comparable in size to the titanosaur Magyarosaurus.[2]
