<Just a quick question: is AMNH 5664 considered Gorgosaurus sternbergi or an
immature libratus? I noticed Currie used the species name sternbergi (very
briefly!) in Cranial Anatomy of Tyrannosaurids from Alberta.>

  The taxon *G. sternbergi* is currently considered a junior synonym of
*Gorgosaurus libratus* by Currie, and is listed in the noted paper in table 1
as such a synonym.
