Protoceratops andrewsi


Protoceratops is a primitive neoceratopsian dinosaur and has a parrot-like beak and a frill at the back of the skull. Many skeletons have been found from the Nemegt Basin of Mongolia, allowing us to know its ontogeney (the frill became bigger as they grew) and sexual dimorphism (males have wider and higher frills).
