Aquilops is an early herbivorous ceratopsian dinosaur dating from the Early Cretaceous of North America, approximately 109 million to 104 million years ago. The type species is A. americanus.

==Description== thumb|left|Restoration The skull is 84.2 mm (3.3 in) long. The holotype is possibly not from a full-grown individual. A comparison with related species indicates it might have been at 60% of its adult length. Wedel estimated the total body length of Aquilops at 60 cm (23.6 in) and its weight at 1.5 kg (3.3 lb).
