  1. I’m not sure if i would call Dilong and Yutyrannus “closely related” since they are proceratosaurids, i think it’s better to use other tyrannosaurids for phylogenetic braketing which only show scales

      Excellent comment. This is true, so this passage has been revised to avoid misleading readers. It’ll be more interesting to see if material from Tyrannosaurus or a closer genus comes to light in the coming years.
