Аннотация
Brain morphology and topography of cranial nerves of the armored dinosaur Bissektipelta archibaldi from the late Cretaceous of Uzbekistan are studied using an artificial endocranial cast. We reconstruct for the Bissektian ankylosaur well-developed olfaction, poor hearing and eyesight, good taste sensitivity, omnivorous diet as well as the ability to filter-feed. The brain structure of Bissektipelta archibaldi is archaic compared with other ankylosaurian species.
