🦴 Known fossil material

Craspedodon is known from only part of its skeleton. This diagram shows which parts of the body have been found.

Parts found as fossils

  • Teeth

Known only from three teeth. A 2007 study identified them as an early ceratopsian, but others have suggested a relative of the duck-billed dinosaurs.

Note: this genus, or which bones belong to it, is still debated.

Coloured areas are parts of the skeleton with fossil bones found so far (sometimes just one bone in that area); faint areas have not been found. The outline is a general shape for its group, not this dinosaur's real body.
