Janenschia is a genus of dinosaur that lived in Africa during the Late Jurassic period. The name Janenschia means "Janensch's lizard," in honor of the German paleontologist Werner Janensch. This dinosaur was a sauropod, which means it was a long-necked herbivorous dinosaur that spent its life grazing on plants. While the name Janenschia is unique, there are some synonyms for this dinosaur. Some of the synonyms of Janenschia are Tornieria, Gigantosaurus and Sauropoda indet. While these names may not be as well-known as Janenschia, they are still important in the world of paleontology and provide more insight into the diversity of dinosaurs that roamed the Earth millions of years ago.
