Chasmosaurus — size comparison — facts and sources

Chasmosaurus belli was a Late Cretaceous North American herbivorous ceratopsid. It had an extensive bony frill with large openings, skull horns and a powerful beak. Four limbs supported its massive body.

Finds from Canada's Dinosaur Park Formation include individuals at different developmental stages, allowing study of skull growth. Some specimens formerly assigned to Chasmosaurus were later moved to other genera as ceratopsid diversity became better understood.
