Galeamopus is a genus of herbivorous diplodocid sauropod dinosaurs. It contains two known species: Galeamopus hayi, known from the Late Jurassic lower Morrison Formation (Kimmeridgian age, about 155 million years ago) of Wyoming, United States, and Galeamopus pabsti, known from Wyoming and Colorado. The type species is known from one of the well-preserved diplodocid fossils, a nearly complete skeleton with an associated skull.
