Iinyani ezimnandi
Gryphoceratops is known from only one fossil: a partial right lower jaw bone called a dentary.1
Even though it is very old, scientists think Gryphoceratops was one of the most advanced leptoceratopsids.1
The holotype fossil was found in the Milk River Formation in Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta.1
The species name morrisoni honors Ian Morrison, who prepared the fossil for study.1
