Everything about Cerapoda totally explained
Cerapoda is a
clade or suborder of the order
Ornithischia. They are the sister group of the
Thyreophora within the clade
Genasauria. They are divided either into two or three groups. The first of these groups were
Ornithopoda ("bird-foot"). Cerapods are united by having a thicker layer of enamel on the inside of their lower teeth. The teeth wore unevenly with chewing and developed sharp ridges that allowed cerapods to break down tougher plant food than other dinosaurs. The other two groups were the
Pachycephalosauria ("thick-headed lizards") and
Ceratopsia ("horned-face"). These latter two are sometimes combined as
Marginocephalia ("fringed heads") owing to their shared features which included the bony shelf they possessed on the back of the skull.
