Frigibax mostly resembles ''{{wp|Concavenator}}'', a theropod dinosaur which had a crest on its back and quills on its forelimbs. Fossils of the genus were first discovered in Spain, and the crest is hypothesized to have functioned as a tool of {{wp|thermoregulation}}. Frigibax may also be based on ''{{wp|Iguanodon}}'', a dinosaur known to have inhabited what is now the Iberian Peninsula — its snout and quills resemble the ''Iguanodon''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s toothless beak and large thumb spikes. | |||
