Bihariosaurus is a genus of ornithopod dinosaur that lived in Europe during the early Cretaceous. However some researchers have pointed out that there are no clearly distinctive features seen in current Bihariosaurus fossils other than what can be commonly seen in other ornithopod genera. Bihariosaurus is noted as being similar to Camptosaurus.
