Description from the seller
Scientific name: Tyrannosaur Dinosaur - Nanotyrannus sp - Theropod Dinosaur Tooth
Location: Weston Co., Wyoming (Private Land), USA
Geological Formation: Lance Creek Fm
Age: Late Cretaceous, Maastrichtian stage (~68-66 Million Years)
Size: 5.1 cm
REF.: #J570
DESCRIPTION:
Nanotyrannus lancensis is a small, fast, agile tyrannosaur from the Late Cretaceous Hell Creek Formation (originally part of the Lance Formation), known for being small and distinctly different from T. rex, with recent studies confirming it's a separate species, not a juvenile T. rex, based on unique features like more teeth, larger hands, and distinct bone structures. Meaning "dwarf tyrant," it was a capable predator of smaller prey, coexisting with T. rex.
Key Facts
Name Meaning: "Dwarf tyrant" from Greek nanos (dwarf) and tyrannos (tyrant).
Species Name: lancensis refers to the Lance Formation where its skull was found.
Size: Around 15-18 feet long, much smaller and lighter than an adult T. rex.
Habitat: Hell Creek and Lance Creek Formation (Late Cretaceous), same time and place as T. rex.
Lifestyle: Fast, agile pursuit predator, likely hunting smaller dinosaurs like pachycephalosaurs.
Controversy: Long debated as either a distinct species or juvenile T. rex, but recent evidence strongly supports it as its own genus.
Distinguishing Features: Narrower skull, more teeth, larger hands, and different bone structures than T. rex.
The Debate;
Juvenile T. rex Theory: Many scientists thought smaller tyrannosaur fossils from Hell Creek and Lance Creek were young T. rex because no large Nanotyrannus fossils existed, and T. rex juveniles were rare.
Separate Species Theory: Researchers found that Nanotyrannus fossils showed adult-like traits (fused bones) and unique features that T. rex never developed, making it biologically impossible to grow into a T. rex.
Current Consensus: Nanotyrannus is a separate, distinct genus of small tyrannosaur, coexisting with T. rex as a unique, agile predator.
Observations; This specimen is relatively large for its species. One side is very well preserved, displaying a beautiful enamel surface and well-defined carina (serrations). The other side, however, is not as well preserved, exhibiting several fractures that have been glued and stabilized. Its surface has been stabilized with Paraloid B-72 to ensure its stability and long-term preservation in a professional manner.
All of our fossils come with a Certificate of Authenticity. Every week, the issued Certificates of Authenticity are updated in our database verification system on our website.

Seller's Story
Jurassic Dreams is the world's largest online dinosaur fossils store, unrivaled as the most reputable source for authentic fossil specimens. We are the only leading online fossils store owned by an accredited geologist and paleontology expert. In addition, we have extraordinary authentic meteorites specimens from all over the universe.
With dozens of different specimens in stock... our customers come back time and again. Because, simply put, our lifetime guarantee is unbeatable.
My name is Juan A. Poblador and I have a strong academic background in Paleontology and Geology from the University of Madrid and University of Alicante. I have participated in fossil excavation projects in several locations mainly in Europe and Africa for over 10 years. Writing scientifically accurate descriptions of every specimen is one of the tasks that consume most of my time. Obviously, recognizing fake and restored fossils is second nature to me. So you can be sure that every fossil in this website has been carefully screened and inspected by me.
I have served collectors and fossil enthusiasts over the years. I have also supplied museums and institutions. I combine the study and research of significant specimens with exhibiting and selling the many other finds, which helps fund the new expeditions.
Additionally, I have a small team of support staff for logistics. I've personally trained them to handle and pack the fossils properly so that they can be shipped within 24 hours and arrive at your door in one piece.
Last but not least, I'm fortunate to have a great network of other seasoned paleontologists with whom I discuss the rarest items, new discoveries, and exploration trips to remote quarries... If I don't know something, the paleontological community really helps out.
I like to manage Jurassic Dreams as a well curated online exhibition of museum grade pieces. I'm a collector myself and I love to share the knowledge with other fellow collectors. That's why I will respond to any email when you have any doubt or when you buy, and you'll have a personalized fossil selection experience.
