Malawisaurus (meaning "Malawi lizard") was a sauropod (specifically a titanosaurid). It lived in what is now Africa, during the Early Cretaceous Period, the same time and place as its relatives Brachiosaurus and Gondwanatitan. It is one of the few titanosaurs for which skull material has been found. It was discovered by Louis L. Jacobs.
