Foraminacephale
"Foraminacephale" (meaning "foramina head") is a genus of pachycephalosaurid dinosaur from Late Cretaceous (Campanian stage) deposits of Canada.[1] "Foraminacephale" is known from the holotype CMN 1423, a nearly complete frontoparietal dome. It was collected in the Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta, from the Dinosaur Park Formation of the Belly River Group. Its holotype was first assigned to a species of Stegoceras and later to Prenocephale. This species was reassigned to its own genus by Ryan K. Schott in 2011 in his Master of Science thesis and the type species is "Foraminacephale brevis". Schott also referred five new specimens to "Foraminacephale". "Foraminacephale" is yet to be formally described. Thus, the name is considered a nomen nudum.[2]
