Siamosaurus (meaning "Siamese lizard") was a theropod dinosaur from Early Cretaceous Thailand. Siamosaurus reached a length of about 9.1 meters (30 feet). The type species, Siamosaurus suteethorni, was formally described by Buffetaut and Ingavat in 1986. There is very little information on this Cretaceous meat-eater, but it is known from teeth that closely resemble those of Spinosaurus; it may have had a diet of fish.
