Dzharatitanis is an extinct genus of probable titanosaurian sauropod dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous Bissekty Formation of Uzbekistan. The genus contains a single species, Dzharatitanis kingi, known from a single tail vertebra. Dzharatitanis was considered to be a member of the Rebbachisauridae when it was named in 2021, but subsequent research has considered it to be a titanosaur.
