>Two skin impressions from Albertosaurus are known, and both show scales.
>One patch was found associated with some gastralic ribs and the impression of a long, unknown bone, indicating that the patch is from the belly. The scales are pebbly and gradually become larger and somewhat hexagonal in shape.
>Also preserved are two larger feature scales, placed 4.5 cm apart from each other, making Albertosaurus, along with Carnotaurus, the only known theropods with preserved feature scales.
>Another skin impression is from an unknown part of the body. These scales are small, diamond-shaped, and arranged in rows.
