*Protoceratops* is a genus of small protoceratopsid dinosaurs that lived in Asia during the **Late Cretaceous**, around 75–71 million years ago.
The genus includes two species: *P. andrewsi* and the larger *P. hellenikorhinus*.
It is often depicted locked in combat with *Velociraptor*, based on a famous fossil find.
