Lythronax argestes

description Lythronax argestes Overview

Lythronax argestes is a tyrannosaurid theropod known from fossils recovered from the Wahweap Formation of southern Utah, United States. Described in 2013, it lived during the Late Cretaceous about 80 million years ago and is among the oldest known tyrannosaurines. Its relatively broad, deep skull and forward-facing eyes indicate that characteristic tyrannosaurine cranial anatomy had developed earlier than previously documented.
