Alioramus (pronounced /ˌæliːoʊˈreɪməs/; meaning 'different branch') is a genus of tyrannosaurid theropod dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous period of Asia. The type and only species, A. remotus, is known from a partial skull and three metatarsals recovered from Mongolian sediments which were deposited in a humid floodplain between 70 to 65 million years ago. These remains were named and described by Russian paleontologist Sergei Kurzanov in 1976. Its relationships to other tyrannosaurid genera are unknown, but some experts believe Alioramus is closely related to the contemporaneous Tarbosaurus, or is a juvenile of that genus.
While very little skeletal material is known, Alioramus was probably bipedal like most theropods, and its sharp teeth indicate that it was a carnivore. It was smaller than tyrannosaurids like Tarbosaurus and Tyrannosaurus, but its adult size is difficult to estimate since it is known mainly from a skull, which may belong to a juvenile. Alioramus is characterized by the row of five bony crests along the top of its snout, and also has more teeth than any other tyrannosaurid. Its skull is lower than those of other tyrannosaurids, but this might be a juvenile feature.

Its likely as hell dat all alioramus specimens r actually CHICK TARBOSAURUS
Many palaeontologist think so
Bdw, chick tarbosaurus can be nice! :P
Just google "Alioramus altai is the same as A. remotus, which is probably juvenile Tarbosaurus"

Such a cool looking head. I wish the rest of the fossil had been preserved.

great video. Alioramus was one of the coolest Tyrannosaurs ever (even with his size of 6 metres). The song is cool too. 5 stars from me.
