Datos curiosos

1

Cerasinops is known from a skeleton that is almost 80% complete, which is very rare for a small dinosaur.1

2

Its name means 'cherry face' because the fossils were found in red-colored rocks that look like cherries.1

3

Cerasinops lived between 80.2 and 77 million years ago, during the Campanian stage of the Late Cretaceous.1

4

It belonged to a group called leptoceratopsids, which were small, horned dinosaurs without big horns.1

5

The first fossils of Cerasinops were collected in 1935 by George Fryer Sternberg, but they were thought to be another dinosaur until 2007.1

6

The specimen that became the type of Cerasinops was nicknamed 'Cera' for over 20 years before it got its official name.1
