Montanoceratops was first thought to be a species of Leptoceratops, but in 1951 it got its own genus name.1
The nose horn of Montanoceratops was actually a misidentified cheekbone, which fooled paleontologists for years.1
Montanoceratops lived alongside bigger horned dinosaurs, but it was smaller and had a deeper tail.1
Fossils of Montanoceratops have been found in rocks that are between 83.6 and 66 million years old.3
Montanoceratops is part of a group called leptoceratopsids, which were diverse and lived in the same habitats as the bigger ceratopsids.1

It was once thought to have a horn on its nose, but that bone was later identified as a misplaced cheek horn. So it did not have a nose horn.21

Seenaa sobaa diigaa
Seenaa sobaa: Montanoceratops had a prominent nose horn like some other horned dinosaurs.
Dhugaa: The supposed nose horn was actually a misidentified cheekbone, so Montanoceratops likely did not have a nose horn.1
