Nasutoceratops titusi, which means "Big Nose Horned Face", was a basal centrosaurine certopsid that lived in what is now the American Southwest during the Late Cretaceous. It, along with Diabloceratops and Machairoceratops, are the only known centrosaurine dinosaurs to live in the Southwest. Nasutoceratops itself was unique for its bovine-esque brow horns and pneumatic elements in its nasal bones, a unique trait not shared by any other ceratopsid. It was of somewhat small size for a ceratopsid, measuring a measly 15 feet long and weighing about 1.5 tons. Given its size, Nasutoceratops would've been hunted by tyrannosaurids like Albertosaurus and Teratophoneus.
