Discover new dinosaurs with horns

What remains of a new herbivore belonging to the group of triceratops along with many other fossils has been unearthed at a quarry in Alberta, Canada in 1916.

However, at that time, people only saw them as a kind of garbage and did not pay attention for nearly 100 years until the experts found them to belong to an unprecedented dinosaur.

The analysis of bone fragments shows that this is a completely new dinosaur called Spinops sternbergorum.

Dr. Andrew Farke, the head of the research team, said: 'We know that in these fossils there is something unusual. We believe it belongs to a strange species that no one knew before. '

This means that paleontologists may have to reconsider how to classify horny dinosaurs as well as large horns and valances in the necks of herbivorous dinosaurs.

Dr Paul Barrett from the Museum of Natural History, said: 'This discovery is particularly important in understanding the relationship between horned dinosaur groups and signs of evolution.'
