Triceratops horridus † Marsh, 1889

Triceratops[1] (a Graeco, τρι- 'tres' + κέρας 'cornu' + ὤψ 'oculus, facies')[2] (nomen a Marsh anno 1889 inditum) est genus dinosaurorum herbivororum quod Aevo Cretaceo exeunte vixit. Reliquiae in America Septentrionali inveniuntur. Anno 2010 Scannella et Homer proposuerunt Triceratopem eundem ac Torosaurum esse; quae sententia etiamnunc disputatur.

  1. Vocabulum fortasse sicut cyclops declinandum: Triceratōps, -ōpis, m.; acc. -ōpem vel -ōpa.
  2. The American Heritage Dictionary, s.v. "Triceratops."
