Description
Species: Centrosaurus apertus

Designation: Clonius (Greek for 'Sprout)

Size: 6 inches

Pose: Yawning (Sitting)

Base: Shrubbery

Notes:
The name 'Clonius' is a homage to the now dubious taxon of 'Monoclonius', an invalid genus of Centrosaurine. This is due to its remains lacking unique features that made it different to other Ceratopsians. However, this didn't stop paleontologists back then from adding 20 different species into ths genus! Eventually making it what we would call a wastebasket taxon.
