Cryolophosaurus is known from a skull, a femur and other material, the skull. C. ellioti possessed a distinctive crest on its head that spanned the head from side to side. Based on evidence from related species and studies of bone texture, it is thought that this bizarre crest was used for intra-species recognition.
Size of A. remotus compared with a Human. Alioramus remotus was estimated at 5 to 6 m (16 to 20 ft) in length when originally described by Sergei Kurzanov in 1976. [2] In 1988 Paul gave a similar length of 6 m (20 ft) and a weight of 700 kg (1,500 lb). [4]

[2] [5] It was also the largest known land-animal of North America during the Early Jurassic. [6]
