Yeneen is an extinct genus of titanosaurian sauropod dinosaurs known from the Late Cretaceous (Santonian age) Bajo de la Carpa Formation of Argentina. The genus contains a single species, Yeneen houssayi, known from at least one partial skeleton. Its discovery highlights the diversity of titanosaurs in this formation, which also includes Bonitasaura, Inawentu, Overosaurus, Rinconsaurus, and Traukutitan.

== Discovery and naming == The Yeneen fossil material was discovered in outcrops at the site, part of the Bajo de la Carpa Formation (Neuquén Group) of Argentina. Three specimens were collected, which are housed in the Museo Municipal Argentino Urquiza. One specimen, permanently accessioned as MAU-Pv-LI-538/1–30 consists of a partial disarticulated skeleton, comprising six , ten , and one vertebrae, in addition to the articulated with both , and several . A second specimen found in association with MAU-Pv-LI-538 but belonging to an individual of a smaller size is a single right ilium, accessioned as MAU-Pv-LI-539. A third specimen, MAU-Pv-LI-731, includes disarticulated axial and appendicular bones and is still undergoing preparation to better study the skeletal anatomy.
