Implications for the existence of Southern Hemisphere ceratopians

[edit]

The discovery of Serendipaceratops shows that ceratopians existed in the Southern Hemisphere, reinstating Notoceratops as a ceratopian. [unsigned]

Probably not. At the time, and for most of the Cretaceous, South America was an island continent with probably no connection to either North America or Australia. Australia was closer to Asia, and some think there may have been a land bridge in the Early Cretaceous. CFLeon (talk) 23:32, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It IS a ceratopsian.

[edit]

The fact that kritosaurini hadrosaurs and panoplosaurini nodosaurs made it from North America to South America proves that Notoceratops is a ceratopsian, likely a leptoceratopsid. 2604:CB00:1109:2000:2DEF:6C8E:EE4B:EFC9 (talk) 01:23, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
