The scale compares the named dimensions. View direction and measurement points are given for each animal.
Nasutoceratops lived in Late Cretaceous Utah. It had a broad, enlarged snout and exceptionally long, forward-curved brow horns. The frill had a relatively simple, gently undulating edge. It was a massive quadrupedal herbivore.
It inhabited a humid subtropical landscape preserved in the Kaiparowits Formation. Described in 2013, its material was collected in Grand Staircase–Escalante. Horns may have served display and competition, while the function of its especially enlarged nose remains unexplained.
