Datos curiosos

Ferganocephale is known only from teeth. No other bones have been found yet.1

Its name means 'Fergana head' because it was found in the Fergana Valley in Kyrgyzstan.1

Some scientists think Ferganocephale might be a pachycephalosaur, a group of dome-headed dinosaurs. But others are not sure because the teeth are too incomplete.1

The teeth of Ferganocephale have no serrations along the edges. This is unusual for an ornithischian dinosaur.2

Ferganocephale lived during the Middle Jurassic period, about 165 million years ago.1 3
