Hydaspitherium is an extinct genus of giraffid artiodactyls that lived during the Cenozoic era during the Miocene epoch to the Pliocene epoch in Pakistan.[2][3] Giraffids are represented in the late Miocene epoch of the Siwaliks by large Sivatheriinae such as Sivatherium, Bramatherium, Helladotherium, and Hydaspitherium. Hydaspitherium has been proposed to be synonymous with Bramatherium. H. megacephalum is restricted to the Dhok Pathan Formation (33°36′N72°30′E / 33.6°N 72.5°E / 33.6; 72.5, paleocoordinates 30°54′N73°54′E / 30.9°N 73.9°E / 30.9; 73.9)[4] in northern Pakistan.[5]
