- Zuniceratops was a ceratopsian dinosaur from the middle to late Cretaceous North America.
- Zuniceratops was a herbiverous ceratopsian (horned dinosaurs e.g. Triceratops) that lived in the area around what is now New Mexico. Zuniceratops was around 3 to 3.5 metres long and one metre high. It was dicovered in 1996 by 8 year-old Christopher James Wolfe, in the Moreno Hill Formation of west-central New Mexico. Its name means Zuni-horned face.
- Zuniceratops ('Zuni-horned face') was a ceratopsian dinosaur from the mid Turonian of the Late Cretaceous Period of what is now New Mexico, United States. It lived about 10 million years earlier than the more familiar horned Ceratopsidae and provides an important window on their ancestry.

abstract
| - Zuniceratops was dicovered in 1996 in New Mexico by an eight year old boy named Christopher Wolfe and named in 1998.
- Zuniceratops was a ceratopsian dinosaur from the middle to late Cretaceous North America.
- Zuniceratops was a herbiverous ceratopsian (horned dinosaurs e.g. Triceratops) that lived in the area around what is now New Mexico. Zuniceratops was around 3 to 3.5 metres long and one metre high. It was dicovered in 1996 by 8 year-old Christopher James Wolfe, in the Moreno Hill Formation of west-central New Mexico. Its name means Zuni-horned face.
- Zuniceratops ('Zuni-horned face') was a ceratopsian dinosaur from the mid Turonian of the Late Cretaceous Period of what is now New Mexico, United States. It lived about 10 million years earlier than the more familiar horned Ceratopsidae and provides an important window on their ancestry. Zuniceratops appears to have been roughly 3 to 3.5 meters long (10-11 ft) and three feet (one meter) tall at the hips. It probably weighed 100 to 150 kilograms (200 to 250 lb). The frill behind its head was fenestrated but lacking epoccipitals. It is the earliest-known ceratopsian to have eyebrow horns and the oldest-known ceratopsian from North America. This set of horns is thought to have grown much larger with age.
