Looks interesting. I wonder what other new species were considered "rubbish"...

I wonder what other new species were considered "rubbish"... I agree. There is probably something really incredible locked away on a museum shelf some where. To be honest though, this new genus looks rather dubious to me. It's too similar to Albertaceratops as far as I can tell. EDIT: I take that back, its horns are rather different. It almost seems to bridge the gap between Albertaceratops and Centrosaurus, just based on its horns.

*Wonders what dromaeosauridae could be rubbish*
If that's what it's called, then hey, who said dumpster diving wasn't ok?

Maybe not rubbish, but I've read that a ton of bones collected during the same expeditions in Africa that gave us giraffatitan have yet to be unpacked. Nobody has had the time or energy to put effort into preparing them since the 1920s!
