About the Item

This striking fossil is an epi-occipital from a Centrosaurus, a genus of ceratopsian dinosaur renowned for its ornate frill and forward-curving nasal horn. These small, spike-like bones lined the edge of the frill and were likely used for display or species recognition – making this an extraordinary relic of Late Cretaceous behavior and morphology. With striking surface texture and three-dimensional preservation, this piece showcases the complex anatomy and evolutionary beauty of Late Cretaceous ceratopsians. A highly desirable and less commonly offered element, this specimen is perfect for advanced collectors, paleontological institutions, or anyone seeking a distinctive dinosaur fossil with character and scientific relevance.
