The weeks #Lego #FossilFriday is #Vagaceratops

In the early 21st century a number of odd looking ceratopsian were found in the Dinosaur Park Formation.

In 2001, some of these fossils were named Chasmosaurus irvinensis.

In 2010, they were reexamined and renamed Vagaceratops irvinensis.

Vagaceratops was a medium sized ceratopsian. The frill has ten epoccipitals, eight of which were flattened and curved forwards, causing a jagged margin along the back of the frill.

Vagaceratops has a reduced supraorbital horn. It brow horns that are reduced to almost nonexistence. Its has a larger snout relative to other ceratopsians of its size.
