Colepiocephale
Colepiocephale was a small dome-headed dinosaur that lived in what is now Canada. It had a thick, bony dome on its skull that looked like a knuckle, and it used its head for head-butting fights with other dinosaurs.1

Colepiocephale means 'knucklehead' because its dome looked like a curled-up knuckle.1
It was one of the oldest dome-headed dinosaurs in North America, living about 80 million years ago.1
The first fossil was a partial skull found in 1923 by E.J. Whitaker along the South Saskatchewan River.1
Scientists once thought it was a species of Stegoceras, but later gave it its own name in 2003.1
All the fossils found in the Foremost Formation belong to Colepiocephale, meaning it was the only dome-headed dinosaur there at that time.1
Its dome was made of solid bone, and it may have used it to ram rivals or show off to mates.1
