Summary

Description
English: Auroraceratops is a basal ceratopsian dinosaur that lived approximately 115 million years ago, in the Early Cretaceous of what is now China. Ceratopsians are ancestrally small and bipedal, and Auroraceratops is no exception at around 1.25 m in length and weighing about 15 kg. However, it does show some more derived features than similar neoceratopsians. It had a small crest, and a short wide snout with two pairs of fang-like teeth. These, along with its beak, were used to process vegetation for its herbivorous diet.
