C Horned dinosaurs

Horned dinosaurs (ceratopsians) are characterized by the horns on their heads, their neck frills, and their curved, parrot-like beaks.
In primitive horned dinosaurs, however, these horns and frills were not very prominent.
Additionally, the rostral bone at the tip of the upper jaw is a unique feature that evolved exclusively in this group of dinosaurs.
