Diabloceratops
''Diabloceratops'' () is an extinct genus of centrosaurine ceratopsian dinosaur that lived approximately 79 million years ago during the latter part of the Cretaceous Period in what is now Utah, in the United States.〔Kirkland, J.I. and DeBlieux, D.D. (2010). "New basal centrosaurine ceratopsian skulls from the Wahweap Formation (Middle Campanian), Grand Staircase–Escalante National Monument, southern Utah", In: Ryan, M.J., Chinnery-Allgeier, B.J., and Eberth, D.A. (eds.) ''New Perspectives on Horned Dinosaurs: The Royal Tyrrell Museum Ceratopsian Symposium''. Bloomington, Indiana University Press, pp. 117–140〕 ''Diabloceratops'' was a medium sized, moderately-built, ground-dwelling, quadrupedal herbivore, that could grow up to an estimated long.〔Glut, D. F., 2012, Dinosaurs, the Encyclopedia, Supplement 7: McFarland & Company, Inc, 866pp.〕 At the time of its discovery, it was the oldest known ceratopsid, and first centrosaurine known from latitudes south of the US state of Montana.
==Etymology==
The genus name combines the Spanish word ''Diablo'', meaning "devil", a reference to the horns on the neck shield, with the Latinised Greek word ''ceratops'', meaning "horned face", a usual element in ceratopsian names. The specific name honours Jeffrey Eaton, a paleontologist at Weber State University and long time friend of the lead author Jim Kirkland. Eaton had a big role in establishing the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument where the specimen was found. The type species, ''Diabloceratops eatoni'', was named and described in 2010 by James Ian Kirkland and Donald DeBlieux.
