Age: Lancian age, upper Maastrichtian Stage, uppermost Senonian subepoch, Upper Gulf Epoch, Late Cretaceous.

Material: Nasals, fragmentary maxillae, fragmentary lachrymal, nearly complete frontals, braincase, anteromedial portion of the parietal, the medial portion of supraoccipital, fragmentary pterygoids, nearly complete quadratojugal, most of the right, but only fragments of the left surangular, left ulna lacking the radial and olecranal edges of the proximal articular surface, metacarpal II, manual ungual phalanx, proximal two-thirds of the left femur, proximal half of left tibia, right fibula, right astragalus, metatarsal II, distal half of metatarsal III, and pedal phalanges, (11 phalanges of the right pes are preserved, more or less complete.

= Tyrannosaurus stanwinstonorum PICKERING 1995 (nomen vanum)

Holotype: FMNH PR2081 (former Black Hills Institute of Geological Research “Sue” 2033)
Note: Also SDSMT 12047

New reconstruction of skull based on BHI cast.

Locality: Field Museum "Sue" locality, Maurice Williams’s Ranch, Cheyenne River Indian Reservation, near Faith, Meade County, South Dakota.

Horizon: Hell Creek Formation, about 15 feet above the contact with the Fox Hills Formation..

Biostratigraphy:

Age: Lancian age, upper Maastrichtian Stage, uppermost Senonian subepoch, Upper Gulf Epoch, Late Cretaceous.

Material: Complete skull, 9 cervical, 11 dorsal, 5 sacral, 36 caudal vertebrae, 25 chevrons, 13 cervical ribs, both proatlas, 19 dorsal ribs, both scapulae, both coracoids, furcula, the right arm and most of the right hand, a complete pelvic girdle, both legs, both calcanea and astrali, a tarsal, a nearly complete right foot (missing only 2 bones), and a single pes phalnage from the left foot.
Note: Possible half a furcula BROCHU, 2003
Note: Pathologies are healed osteomylitis (infection) of the left fibula, healded proximal humerus, exuberant vertebral osteophyte formation, and multiple bilaterally-present erosive lesions primarily confined to the post-dentary mandibular elements. No evidence of pre or peri-mortem bite marks (REGA, 2001, BROCHU, (2002) 2003). Furcula is also pathologic (LARSON & RIGBY, 2005).
2 broken fibula, broken ribs with a tyrannosaur tooth in one, 2 broken caudal vertebrae, injured lower jaw with malformed double cusped tooth (LARSON & RIGBY, 2005, HAMM, HAMPE, SCHWARZ, WITZMANN, MAKOVICKY, BROCHU, REITER & ASBACH, 2020).

Note: Has erosive lesions, probably from Trichomonas gallinae-like protozoan on the dentary (WOLFF, SALISBURY, HORNER & VARRICCHIO, 2009) and on some of its theeth (BRINK, 2019). Lesion description: Round, tapered edge, rim thickening/remodelling, infrequent median process.

Found with Sue, a smaller adult male, a juvenile and infant.

A proximal tibia.

Partial fibula.

Partial tibia.

Cranial and front bones.

Note: This is a robust animal. (Female)
