''Hydaspitherium'' is an extinct genus of giraffidae.〔. Retrieved June 2013.〕 Giraffids are represented in the late Miocene of the Siwaliks by large Sivatheriinae such as ''Sivatherium'', ''Bramatherium'', ''Helladotherium'', and ''Hydaspitherium''. It has been proposed that ''Hydapitherium'' is synonymous with ''Bramatherium''. ''H. megacephalum'' is restricted to the Dhok Pathan Formation (, paleocoordinates )〔. Retrieved June 2013.〕 in northern Pakistan. Four separate species of ''Hydaspitherium'' were described more than a century ago, but concluded that their differences can be explained as sexual dimorphism and intraspecific variability: ''H. birmanicum'' () is based on a single right upper molar. ''H. grande'' () and ''H. magnum'' (Pilgrim 1910) are only slightly larger than ''H. megacephalum'' and the variation in dentition does not support separate taxa. Bhatti et al. 2012 accepted two species in the Siwaliks: the smaller ''H. megacephalum'' and the larger ''H. grande'' until more material has been collected. ==Notes==
