The main difference with <i>Tarchia</i> resided in the unique squamosal horn shape. However, <i>Tarchia</i> itself has also a unique squamosal horn configuration in that an accessory osteoderm is present in front of it. It might thus in principle be possible that <i>Zaraapelta</i> simply represents an old <i>Tarchia</i> individual in which this osteoderm has shifted on top of the squamosal horn, creating the strange double-layered structure. This possibility was rejected by the authors however, because from other ankylosaurian species no comparably large <a href="/wiki/Ontogenetic" class="mw-redirect" title="Ontogenetic">ontogenetic</a> changes of the squamosal horn shape are known.<sup id="cite_ref-Arbour2014II_1-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Arbour2014II-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The squamosal horn, on the top rear corner of the skull, is robust and pyramid-shaped. There is a sharp cutting edge on top of the horn, bordered by smooth strips; these abruptly change into deeper rugose areas, so that rims are present on both sides. The quadratojugal cheeks horn is large with a concave rear edge. The cheek area between these large horns, behind the eye socket, is filled by flat osteoderms, separated by deep grooves, creating a delicate "dried mud" pattern. The eye socket itself is surrounded by a narrow bone ring. On its rear edge six osteoderms are present, those above rectangular in shape, the lower ones gradually becoming smaller and more triangular. Behind these are seven smaller tiles, roughly square-shaped, in an irregular pattern. The rear of this configuration is formed by a large triangular osteoderm. Just below the squamosal horn and above the cheek horn a row of small bumps is present.<sup id="cite_ref-Arbour2014II_1-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Arbour2014II-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Phylogeny">Phylogeny</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Zaraapelta&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Phylogeny"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><i>Zaraapelta</i> was placed in the <a href="/wiki/Ankylosauridae" title="Ankylosauridae">Ankylosauridae</a>.
