Ferganocephale is known only from teeth. No other bones have been found yet.1

Its name means 'Fergana head' because it was found in the Fergana Valley in Kyrgyzstan.1

Some scientists think Ferganocephale might be a pachycephalosaur, a group of dome-headed dinosaurs. But others are not sure because the teeth are too incomplete.1

The teeth of Ferganocephale have no serrations along the edges. This is unusual for an ornithischian dinosaur.2

Ferganocephale lived during the Middle Jurassic period, about 165 million years ago.1 3

?What did Ferganocephale eat?

It was a plant-eating dinosaur, called an herbivore.3

?How big was Ferganocephale?

Nobody knows for sure because only a few teeth have been found, but it was probably a small dinosaur.1

?Is Ferganocephale a real dinosaur?

Some scientists think it is, but others say it is a nomen dubium (doubtful name) because the teeth are too incomplete to be sure.1

ጽውጽዋይ ዘፍርስ

ጽውጽዋይ: Some people think Ferganocephale was definitely a dome-headed dinosaur (pachycephalosaur).

ሓቂ: Scientists now disagree. Many think the teeth are too few and worn to be sure it was a pachycephalosaur. It might be a different kind of ornithischian.1

ገና ዘከራኽር: Scientists still debate whether Ferganocephale was a pachycephalosaur or another kind of ornithischian dinosaur. The only fossils are a few teeth, so its true classification is uncertain.1
