Um Ken.... Ceratopian dinosaurs have far and away the longest dinosaurian skulls. In fact I often work 5 metres from the largest known skull of any land animal, the chasmosaurine Torosaurus. Triceratops and Pentaceratops also had quite long skulls, often times twice as long as their tyrannosauroid nemises.
