About Lokiceratops

Lokiceratops (meaning "Loki horned face") is an extinct genus of centrosaurine ceratopsian dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous (Campanian) Judith River Formation of Montana, United States. The genus contains a single species, L. rangiformis, known from most of the skull and a partial skeleton. Four other ceratopsians are known from the same stratigraphic interval as Lokiceratops—more than in any other locality—suggesting that this clade was very diverse during the Late Cretaceous of northern Laramidia.
