1

Zhuchengceratops had a lower jaw that was about 50 centimeters long, which is very deep and thin side-to-side.2

2

Unlike its big cousins like Triceratops, Zhuchengceratops had no horns and only a very short frill on its head.2

3

Its skeleton was found in a bone bed full of Shantungosaurus bones, which are huge duck-billed dinosaurs.2

4

Zhuchengceratops lived about 83 to 72 million years ago, during the Campanian age of the Late Cretaceous.3

5

Scientists think Zhuchengceratops was an adult because the bones in its spine were fully fused together.2

6

This dinosaur is a member of the Leptoceratopsidae family, a group of small horned dinosaurs that lived alongside bigger horned dinosaurs.2
