Goyocephale had a flat skull roof, unlike the domed heads of later pachycephalosaurs like Pachycephalosaurus.1

Its name comes from the Mongolian word 'goyo' meaning 'decorated' and the Greek 'kephale' for 'head', referring to the bumpy ornamentation on its skull.1

Goyocephale had sharp, fang-like teeth at the front of its upper jaw, followed by a gap and then smaller cheek teeth.1

The back edge of its skull roof had many small bony bumps that would have been the base of little horns in life.1

Goyocephale is known from a single partial skeleton that includes most of the skull, parts of the forelimb and hindlimb, and some vertebrae.1

Scientists think Goyocephale was more primitive than its close relative Homalocephale because it had a shorter sacrum (hip bone) and larger skull openings.2

?What did Goyocephale eat?

Goyocephale was a plant-eater (herbivore). It had sharp, fang-like teeth at the front of its mouth and smaller cheek teeth for chewing plants.1 3

?When did Goyocephale live?

?Where was Goyocephale found?

Goyocephale was discovered in the Gobi Desert of Mongolia, at a place called Boro Khovil.1 2

Ku tas léeb yu dul dëgg

Léeb: All pachycephalosaurs had thick, domed skulls for head-butting.

Dëgg: Goyocephale had a flat skull roof, not a dome. It belonged to a group of flat-headed pachycephalosaurs called Homalocephalidae.1

Gisees: Goyocephale was named in 1982 by Altangerel Perle, Teresa Maryańska, and Halszka Osmólska based on a skeleton found at Boro Khovil in the Gobi Desert of Mongolia. The species name honors American scholar Owen Lattimore.1 2
Ñu ngi koy werante ba tey: Scientists are not sure exactly how old the rocks at Boro Khovil are, so the precise age of Goyocephale is still debated.2
