Crichtonpelta is named after Michael Crichton, the author of Jurassic Park.1

It is the oldest known ankylosaurine dinosaur, living about 99 to 95 million years ago.1

The cheek horn of Crichtonpelta pointed upward, a unique feature not seen in other ankylosaurs.1

Its skull roof had a mass of armour that was not divided into separate tiles.1

Scientists are not sure if Crichtonpelta had a tail club, because no tail bones have been found.1
