Skull restoration. In October 2010 an online Nature News report [6] (not peer-reviewed) challenged the provenance and classification of Raptorex as a basal tyrannosauroid. Peter Larson, president of the Black Hills Institute of Geological Research, Inc., a private fossil excavation and supply company, inspected the fossil and told Nature that he concluded it was a juvenile Tarbosaurus.
An additional tyrannosaurid, Raptorex, was initially described as a more primitive tyrannosauroid, but likely represents a juvenile tyrannosaurine similar to Tarbosaurus. However, as it is known only from a juvenile specimen, it is also currently considered a nomen dubium . [ 37 ]
These genera, however are controversial as the remains of these animals are immature or juvenile individuals. With the possible exception of Raptorex, [17] it is widely assumed that the Asian specimens are early growth stages of Tarbosaurus, [18] [19] [20] whereas the North American specimens are those of Tyrannosaurus.

Estimated size compared to a human. Zhuchengtyrannus was a large carnivorous theropod, and the holotype has been estimated to have been "similar in size and gross morphology to Tarbosaurus", [1] which is about 10 metres (33 ft) in body length and 5 metric tons (5.5 short tons) in body mass.
