izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Furcatoceratops was named in 2023, making it one of the newest horned dinosaurs discovered.1

Its horns pointed forward and curved slightly inward, like a fork, which is how it got its name.1 2

The only known skeleton is of a subadult, meaning it was not fully grown when it died.2

Furcatoceratops lived alongside other dinosaurs like the horned Avaceratops, the duck-billed Brachylophosaurus, and the tyrannosaur Daspletosaurus.1

Its fossils were found in the Judith River Formation, which was once a warm, coastal plain.1 2

Scientists think Furcatoceratops is closely related to Nasutoceratops, another horned dinosaur with a big nose.1 4

?When did Furcatoceratops live?

Furcatoceratops lived about 75 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period. Its fossils were found in rocks about 75.6 million years old.1 2

?Was Furcatoceratops a dinosaur?

Yes, Furcatoceratops was a dinosaur. It was a type of horned dinosaur called a ceratopsian, specifically a centrosaurine.1

Inikwe igama ngu:: Ishikawa et al. 20234
Iqela: Iidayinaso ezineempondo
Usapho / iclade: Ceratopsidae4
Ukuhlelwa: Ornithischia > Ceratopsia > Ceratopsidae4
Ubudala bamatye: 84 ukuya ku-72 izigidi zeminyaka (Campanian)4
Izakhiwo zamatye: Judith River4
Amazwe: iUSA4
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 1 kwi-Paleobiology Database4
Ukufunyanwa: Furcatoceratops was named by Hiroki Ishikawa and colleagues in 2023 based on a nearly complete skeleton found at a quarry in Montana, USA. The skeleton was dug up by Triebold Paleontology Incorporated and is now kept at the National Museum of Nature and Science in Japan.1 2
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists are not sure exactly how big a fully grown Furcatoceratops was, because the only known fossil is from a subadult.2
