INFO Breviceratops (Kurzanov,1990) > B.kozlowskii (Maryanska & Osmolska,1975) = Protoceratops kozlowskii ? (Maryanska & Osmolska,1975)

Protoceratops (and Breviceratops) retain premaxillary teeth all other neoceratopians have lost them. B.kozlowskii has a short and narrow snout, a large, deep antorbital fossa, and a short, flattened nasal horn.

It seems possible that al of the basal ceratopian specimens from the Barun Goyot Fm.  perttain to a single species. The most appropriate name for that taxon is Bagaceratops rozhdestvenskyi. Brevicaratops may be regarded as a junior synonym of Bagaceratops
