## List of Australian and Antarctic dinosaurs
### Valid genera

| Name | Year | Formation | Location | Notes |
| Antarctopelta | 2006 | Snow Hill Island Formation (Late Cretaceous, Maastrichtian) | Antarctica | Possessed unusual caudal vertebrae that may have supported a "macuahuitl" as in Stegouros |
| Atlascopcosaurus | 1989 | Eumeralla Formation (Early Cretaceous, Aptian to Albian) | Australia | Only known from remains of jaws and teeth |
| Australotitan | 2021 | Winton Formation (Late Cretaceous, Cenomanian to Turonian) | Australia | The largest dinosaur known from Australia, comparable in size to large South American dinosaurs. Potentially a synonym of the contemporary Diamantinasaurus |
| Australovenator | 2009 | Winton Formation (Late Cretaceous, Cenomanian) | Australia | Analysis of its arms suggests it was well-adapted to grasping |
| Austrosaurus | 1933 | Allaru Formation (Early Cretaceous, Albian) | Australia | Its holotype was found associated with marine shells |
| Cryolophosaurus | 1994 | Hanson Formation (Early Jurassic, Pliensbachian) | Ross Dependency | Had a distinctive "pompadour" crest that spanned the head from side to side |
| Diamantinasaurus | 2009 | Winton Formation (Late Cretaceous, Cenomanian) | Australia | May have been closely related to South American titanosaurs, suggesting they dispersed to Australia via Antarctica |
| Diluvicursor | 2018 | Eumeralla Formation (Early Cretaceous, Albian) | Australia | Lived in a prehistoric floodplain close to a high energy river |
| Fostoria | 2019 | Griman Creek Formation (Late Cretaceous, Cenomanian) | Australia | Four individuals have been found in association |
| Fulgurotherium | 1932 | Griman Creek Formation (Late Cretaceous, Cenomanian) | Australia | Fragmentary, but may have been an elasmarian |
| Galleonosaurus | 2019 | Wonthaggi Formation (Early Cretaceous, Barremian) | Australia | Its upper jaw bone resembles a galleon when turned upside down |
| Glacialisaurus | 2007 | Hanson Formation (Early Jurassic, Pliensbachian) | Ross Dependency | Basal yet survived late enough to coexist with true sauropods |
| Imperobator | 2019 | Snow Hill Island Formation (Late Cretaceous, Maastrichtian) | Antarctica | Initially described as a basal paravian although it may potentially be an unenlagiine |
| Kakuru | 1980 | Bulldog Shale (Early Cretaceous, Aptian) | Australia | Poorly known |
| Kunbarrasaurus | 2015 | Allaru Formation, Toolebuc Formation (Early Cretaceous, Albian) | Australia | Preserves stomach contents containing ferns, fruit and seeds |
| Leaellynasaura | 1989 | Eumeralla Formation (Early Cretaceous, Aptian to Albian) | Australia | One referred specimen has an extremely long tail. If it does belong to this genus, it would be three times as long as the rest of the body |
| Minmi | 1980 | Bungil Formation (Early Cretaceous, Aptian) | Australia | Had long legs for an ankylosaur, possibly to help it run into bushes for protection |
| Morrosaurus | 2016 | Snow Hill Island Formation (Late Cretaceous, Maastrichtian) | Antarctica | Closely related to Australian and South American ornithopods |
| Muttaburrasaurus | 1981 | Allaru Formation?, Mackunda Formation (Early Cretaceous, Albian) | Australia | Possessed a short oval bump on its snout |
| Ozraptor | 1998 | Colalura Sandstone (Middle Jurassic, Bajocian) | Australia | Potentially the oldest known abelisauroid |
| Qantassaurus | 1999 | Wonthaggi Formation (Early Cretaceous, Barremian) | Australia | Distinguished from other contemporary ornithopods by its relatively short dentary |
| Rapator | 1932 | Griman Creek Formation (Late Cretaceous, Cenomanian) | Australia | Known from only a metacarpal |
| Rhoetosaurus | 1926 | Walloon Coal Measures (Late Jurassic, Oxfordian) | Australia | Retains four claws on its hind feet, a basal trait |
| Savannasaurus | 2016 | Winton Formation (Late Cretaceous, Cenomanian to Turonian) | Australia | May have spent more time near water than other sauropods |
| Serendipaceratops | 2003 | Wonthaggi Formation (Early Cretaceous, Aptian) | Australia | Possessed a robust ulna similar to that of ceratopsians and ankylosaurs, but was likely a member of the latter group |
| Timimus | 1993 | Eumeralla Formation (Early Cretaceous, Albian) | Australia | Potentially a tyrannosauroid. If so, it would be one of the few Gondwanan members of that group |
| Trinisaura | 2013 | Snow Hill Island Formation (Late Cretaceous, Campanian) | Antarctica | The first ornithopod named from Antarctica |
| Weewarrasaurus | 2018 | Griman Creek Formation (Late Cretaceous, Cenomanian) | Australia | Unusually, its fossils were preserved in opal |
| Wintonotitan | 2009 | Winton Formation (Late Cretaceous, Cenomanian) | Australia | More gracile than other contemporary titanosaurs |

### Invalid and potentially valid genera

* "Allosaurus robustus"
* Walgettosuchus
* Agrosaurus macgillivrayi: Although originally reported as being from Australia, it may actually be from Europe, possibly being synonymous with Thecodontosaurus.
* "Allosaurus robustus": Originally described as a new species of Allosaurus, but may actually represent a megaraptoran or abelisauroid.
* "Biscoveosaurus": Said to be a large ornithopod contemporary with Morrosaurus.
* Walgettosuchus woodwardi: It has been considered synonymous with Rapator, but too little is known of both genera to be certain.
