1

Medusaceratops was first thought to be a different dinosaur called Albertaceratops, but later scientists realized it was a new species.2

2

Its frill had at least five pairs of bony bumps called epiparietals, including a large hooked spike on each side.2

3

The Mansfield bonebed where Medusaceratops was found contains many skeletons of this dinosaur, suggesting they lived in herds.2

4

Medusaceratops is one of the oldest known centrosaurine ceratopsids, a group of horned dinosaurs with big nose horns.2

5

The type specimen of Medusaceratops is a partial skull roof, found in rocks that are between 83.6 and 72.2 million years old.15
