The genus Albalophosaurus consists of a ceratopsian ornithischian dinosaur first described in 2009. It was a herbivore dinosaur that lived in the Early Cretaceous Period and was found exclusively in Asia, mainly Japan. It was not common to find dinosaur remains in Japan as most fossils are discovered in other parts of the world. This new ornithischian dinosaur, type species - Albalophosaurus yamaguchiorum, was first discovered in 1997 with the help of remains found by Yoshinori Kobayashi from the Kuwajima Formation of central Japan. The species Albalophosaurus yamaguchiorum discovered was described on the basis of a lower jaw and partial skull remains recovered from the Lower Cretaceous Kuwajima Formation of central Japan. The genus Albalophosaurus also has a meaning of white crest lizard.
