Euoplocephalus Hatchling (Oil Painting)

Externally, the head was a heavy box of bone, covered in plates that were fused to the skull bones. Inside was the complex of chambers and air passages that characterized both the ankylosaurs (fused lizards) and nodosaurs (knobbed lizards). Thick spines protected the sides of the face. Even the eyelids were armored, forming shutters that could descend to guard the eyelids when danger threatened. These bony eyelids were only accessory structures. The real eyelids would have consisted of the unusual delicate membranes.
