Homalocephale
Homalocephale is a genus of small pachycephalosaurid dinosaurs from the Late Cretaceous of Asia. It is notable for a relatively flat skull compared with the later, thick domes seen in many pachycephalosaurs.
The genus was named in 1974 on the basis of fossil material collected in Mongolia. The type
In contrast to later dome-headed pachycephalosaurids, Homalocephale has a markedly flat to gently arched skull roof.
Paleobiology suggests a herbivorous diet typical of pachycephalosaurs, with skull morphology sometimes invoked in discussions of
Paleoenvironmental context places Homalocephale in Late Cretaceous Asia, with fossils recovered from regions that indicate a
