Albertosaurines, or dinosaurs of the subfamily Albertosaurinae, lived in the Late Cretaceous of United States and Canada. The subfamily was first used by Philip J. Currie , Jørn H. Hurum , and Karol Sabath as a group of tyrannosaurid dinosaurs.
The other major subfamily of tyrannosaurids is Tyrannosaurinae, which includes members like Daspletosaurus, Tarbosaurus, and Tyrannosaurus. Compared with the more robust tyrannosaurines, albertosaurines had slender builds, with proportionately smaller skulls and longer bones of the lower legs and feet (metatarsals and phalanges). [28] [40]
Like albertosaurines, tyrannosaurines also had heterodont dentition, large heads design to catch and kill their prey, and short didactyl arms. Based on the growth stages of Tyrannosaurus (and possibly Tarbosaurus [20]), tyrannosaurines undergone ontogenetic changes from gracile or slender, semi-longirostrine immatures to robust, heavy-headed ...
Tyrannosaurus (/ t ɪ ˌ r æ n ə ˈ s ɔː r ə s, t aɪ-/) [a] is a genus of large theropod dinosaur. The type species Tyrannosaurus rex (rex meaning 'king' in Latin), often shortened to T. rex or colloquially T-Rex, is one of the best represented theropods.
The debate about whether Tyrannosaurus was a predator or a pure scavenger is as old as the debate about its locomotion. Lambe (1917) described a good skeleton of Tyrannosaurus ' s close relative Gorgosaurus and concluded that it and therefore also Tyrannosaurus was a pure scavenger, because the Gorgosaurus ' s teeth showed hardly any wear.
