In 2005, geologist Peter Hews discovered a skull at the Oldman River in Alberta. The fossil was secured by a team of the Royal Tyrrell Museum. The specimen was given the nickname "Hellboy" for its horns and the difficulty of removing it from the matrix.[3] In 2015, Caleb Marshall Brown and Donald Henderson named and described the type species Regaliceratops peterhewsi. The generic name combines Latin regalis, "royal", a reference to both the crown-shaped neck shield and the "Royal" Tyrrell, with a Greek keras, "horn", and ops, "face". The specific name honours Hews.[1] The holotype, TMP 2005.055.0001, was found in a layer of the St. Mary River Formation dating from the middle Maastrichtian, about 68 million years old. It consists of a rather complete skull of which the snout bone, the rostrum, is lacking. The skull has been deformed by compression and its rear and underside are obscured by the matrix.[1] Regaliceratops was about five metres long, with an estimated weight of 1.5 tonnes.[4]SystematicsRegaliceratops was resolved as a member of the Triceratopsini by Brown and Henderson (2015).[5][6] However, in 2016 a study by Mallon et al. did not resolve Regaliceratops as a triceratopsin.[7]PhylogenyPhylogeny of Brown & Henderson, 2015.[8][9] {{clade| style=font-size:100%; line-height:100%|label1=Triceratopsini |1={{clade |1=Regaliceratops peterhewsi |2=Eotriceratops xerinsularis |3=Ojoceratops fowleri |4={{clade |1=Titanoceratops ouranos |2={{clade |1=Nedoceratops hatcheri |2={{clade |1={{clade |1=Torosaurus latus |2=Torosaurus utahensis }} |2={{clade |1=Triceratops horridus |2=Triceratops prorsus }} }} }} }} }} }} Phylogeny of Mallon et al., 2016.[10] {{Clade|1=Anchiceratops ornatus |2=Regaliceratops peterhewsi |3={{clade |1=Arrhinoceratops brachyops |2={{clade |label1=Triceratopsini |1={{clade |1={{clade |1=Ojoceratops fowleri |2=Titanoceratops ouranos |3=Nedoceratops hatcheri |4=Torosaurus latus |5="Torosaurus" utahensis |6={{clade |1=Triceratops prorsus |2=Triceratops horridus }} }} }} }} }} }} See also
