This weeks #Lego #FossilFriday is #Kosmoceratops

In 2006-07 several specimens were discovered in Utah's Kaiparowits Formation.

In 2010 they were referred to as "Kaiparowits new taxon A" and identified as a chasmosaurine ceratopsid in a book.

Later in 2010, paleontologist Scott D. Sampson and colleagues named the new genus and species Kosmoceratops richardsoni.
