    Identification

    A. temertyorum is characterized by the typical Dromaeosaurid traits (compressed, recurved, differing mc/dc serration densities), and longitudinal ridges/facets on the crown face.

    Notes

    This tooth was found this past Summer ('21), and in the same county as the holotype specimen.
