Deltadromeus, which translates to "delta runner," is a genus of theropod dinosaur that inhabited Northern Africa. Notably, it possessed remarkably elongated hind limbs relative to its size, implying it was a fast and agile runner. Unfortunately, no fossils of its skull have been discovered. The available fossil evidence is limited to a single species, D. agilis, often referred to as the "agile delta runner," which was unearthed in the Kem Kem Beds.

Deltadromeus is believed to potentially belong to the neovenatorid carnosaur group, the tyrannosauroid group, or possibly a basal coelurosaur. Some research has suggested that it might be a ceratosaurian, specifically a member of the Noasauridae family.

The holotype of Deltadromeus comprises the remains of a partial skeleton, with estimations suggesting the creature had a length of about 8 meters (approximately 26 feet). It's estimated that the live weight of this animal would have been around 1,050 kilograms.

The Deltadromeus skeleton was discovered within the same geological formation as the colossal theropods Carcharodontosaurus, Spinosaurus, and Bahariasaurus, which might potentially be considered synonymous with Deltadromeus. Notably, no skull remains have been recovered for either Deltadromeus or Bahariasaurus. Furthermore, while carnivorous teeth labeled as "Deltadromeus" are available in rock shops, it's impossible to verify if they truly originate from this particular dinosaur.
