diabloceratops means ‘devil-horned face’, which while edgy, doesn’t hold a candle to the contemporary tyrannosaurid lythronax, meaning ‘gore king’ or ‘gore lord’

Here’s a snapshot of the basal tyrannosaurid, Lythronax argestes for this #FossilFriday. It lived ~80 Ma, making it a much older cousin of the famous, #Tyrannosaurus rex 🦖- Discovered in Southern Utah 🇺🇸, its name means "gore king from the southwest."

Portrait of Lythronax from Nov. 2021. Back in college I'd experiment with doing scale detail. Nowdays I'm more impressionistic about details and lighting and rendering. When I bother to render.

Its actually more basal than T-Rex, you can tell because of the skull is way less robust than Tyrannosaurus' skull. You can see the development of the exaggerated features of T-Rex through Yutyrannus, Dryptosaurs, Lythronax, and finally T-Rex. As you can see despite being contemporaries Dryptosaurus

Tyrannosaur sketch.I think I had lythronax on my mind but since i sketched it without ref I doubt it matches lythronax anatomy

Ubirajara is a cooler recent discovery, Lythronax has a cool name, Pachycephalosaurus and Mononykus are all time favourites.

Lythronax argestes, a tyrannosaur who roamed the edge of an ancient sea that split North America in half 80 million years ago. Biting was their answer for everything.

Of course, Utah is well-known for its body fossil material, and the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument has produced some truly unique animals. From highly ornamented ceratopsians to limping tyrannosaurs, Utah was a cornucopia of diversity 80-75 million years ago. (4/5)
The brown holotype skull of Diabloceratops in a white archival jacket, in profile facing left. The skull is on a museum shelf and has a red label with the dinosaur species below it. From the Natural History Museum of Utah, found near Kanab. The top of the partial skull of Gryposaurus with tooth marks from crocodylians. The bone is a dark grey. From the Natural History Museum of Utah, found near Kanab. The broken fibula of the holotype of Lythronax. The brown bone has a partially healed break in its center, and it sits in a protective jacket. From the Natural History Museum of Utah, found near Kanab. A grey cast of the skull of Kosmoceratops in profile facing left. From the BYU Museum of Paleontology, original fossil found near Kanab.

is much closer in physiology to Yutyrannus than either Lythronax or T-Rex despite being contemporaries meaning the two lineages split before Lythronax. Tyrannosaurus is actually the most derived Tyrannosaurus and has extremely exaggerated traits compared to any other.

my piece for @fossilfighterszine.bsky.social !
A fully rendered digital artwork featuring Lythro (Lythronax) from Fossil Fighters Frontier. It looks at the viewer with an intense grin. A vertical black banner covers the left side of the piece, covered in text that reads "Gore King," "Lythronax," Lythro in Japanese Katakana, and the descriptive text for the vivosaur as found in the game. Next to the banner is faint pixelated text that reads "Gore King" repeated, and on the other side is the four golden fossil pieces that belong to Lythro. To the right is a list of Lythro's four attacks, and below that is a list of Lythro's stats as found in-game.

Happy #FossilFriday, these are the broken lower leg bones (fibulae) of the tyrannosaurs Teratophoneus and Lythronax! Partial healing has occurred in both specimens, indicating the animals lived with the breaks for a short time before dying. (1/2)
#paleontology #pathology #dinosaur #science
Two tan broken fibulae sit on a black sheet. On the left, an orange sign indicates the fibula belongs to Teratophoneus curriei, and the break is just above the midline of the fibula. On the right, an orange sign states the fibula belongs to Lythronax argestes, and the break on the fibula is a little ways below the midpoint.

Ooo!! My top 3 for carnivores and herbivores would be 1. Alamosaurus 2. Parasaurolophus 3. Sonorasaurus 4. Bambiraptor 5. Dakotaraptor 6. Lythronax mostly because we don't see a lot of these fellas in dino media. Do you have some critters in mind?
