This post is about the biggest Tyrannosaurs of Asia and I will include the two largest non tyrannosaurid tyrannosauroids from Asia.

TARBOSAURUS 





Probably the most famous tyrannosaur from Asia. The holotype specimen PIN 551-1 has been estimated at about 10 to 11 m long and 5 to 6 metric tons in weight. ( Holtz 2012, Molina Perez and laramendi 2019, Mickey Mortimer) But this is not the largest it could get. Phil Currie estimated them at up to 12 m long in 2000 and the 2024 SVP abstract from slowiak et al estimated a specimen add up to 12 m long.According to Mongolian paleontologist, chinzorij tsogbataar, there are in fact undescribed tarbo specimens in Mongolian museums that r 12 m long. Therefore the largest specimens would have been about 12 m and roughly seven metric tons given the weight.

ZHUCHENGTYRANNUS 




It was found in a quarry in shandong province and the original holotype is estimated at about 10 m long. However more recently discovered material has pushed its size up to 12 to 12 and 1/2 m and a minimum of eight metric tons.

ZHEYTSU TYRANNOSAUR




[https://www.researchgate.net/publication/235806282\_The\_forgotten\_dinosaurs\_of\_Zhetysu\_Eastern\_Kazakhstan\_Late\_Cretaceous?\_tp=eyJjb250ZXh0Ijp7ImZpcnN0UGFnZSI6Il9kaXJlY3QiLCJwYWdlIjoiX2RpcmVjdCJ9fQ](https://www.researchgate.net/publication/235806282_The_forgotten_dinosaurs_of_Zhetysu_Eastern_Kazakhstan_Late_Cretaceous?_tp=eyJjb250ZXh0Ijp7ImZpcnN0UGFnZSI6Il9kaXJlY3QiLCJwYWdlIjoiX2RpcmVjdCJ9fQ)This is an unnamed tyrannosaur from the late Cretaceous of Kazakhstan. There's not a lot known about it but the partial dentary is half a meter long. It appears to be similar in size to the zhuchengtyrannus holotype, so it's possibly around 10 m long.

UDURCHUKAN TYRANNOSAURID 




Coming from a formation in Russia called the udurchukan formation, it's an unnamed and partial animal that is big. 



According to bolotsky et al 2021 the specimens they have are comparable in size to Tyrannosaurus. But given the variability in size of tyrannosaurus specimens is not clear what estimate they meant. But based on that nonetheless 12 m long appears to be the most appropriate estimate. The weight is not certain because the remains are too partial to get an idea of what its build was like. Probably 7 tons minimum.

TOOTH TAXONS 




These are animals that are only known from teeth. 




The first is NHMG-8500. These mysterious teeth come from the nanxiong formation of Southern China. Their identity as a tyrannosaur is somewhat debated with the morphology being completely unusual. On the other hand the formation that comes from is an absolute stratigraphic mess so it might be from earlier in time and might not even be a tyrannosaur. The teeth are said to be similar in size to T-Rex.




A more appropriate candidate is the “Tyrannosaurus”  luanchuanensis. Little is known about it other than it was a large tyrannosaur that lived at the end of the Cretaceous.

SINOTYRANNUS



This is a large basal tyrannosauroid that lived in jiufotang formation alongside microraptor. 



It was 10 m long.

YUTYRANNUS 



yutyrannus lived in the yixian formation before SINOTYRANNUS.




It was 8 m long
