    Supposedly Spinosaur bones from Morocco

    Kem kem bones, supposedly Spinosaur Hello all, i recently got two bones that come from Morrocco, kem kem formation, suposedly belonging to a Spinosaur. They seem quite peculiar and could actually come from anything. Attached are some photo’s, does anyone have an idea what it could be?

  3. Hi, Was wondering what this could be. It is 19cm and I suspect it could possibly be from a theropod, but it might instead be something else. Thanks!

    Possible Dinosaur Vertebra from Morocco?

    Hello! This is my first post so be gentle I have a vertebrae from Morocco here that i cant seem to figure out. The owner of the collection I'm examining recalls purchasing it from Morocco, but doesn't recall if it comes from the Kem Kem beds or from the High Atlas Mountains. After some dusting and light acetone cleaning was able to determine that it is in fact a vertebra, but I'm not sure of the species, as the piece is slightly deformed and lacks processes. My best guess so far is a sauropod caudal vertebra, possibly Rebbachisaurus, but I'm having difficulty in finding any reputable sources that would confirm this. I could also understand if it came from a large theropod, but has lost its shape due to deformation. Sadly, most of my expertise is with Hell Creek fossils, so I'd really appreciate any help that can be offered Lastly, if the piece is of any significance (undescribed or poorly described species) it will most likely be donated to the local museum! So that would be cool. Thanks again!

  8. Hi all, A friend in North Carolina has this (among many other) box of bones from Morocco that need some sort of ID or general push in the right direction. I haven't been staring at bones long enough to make sense of these, but the tray they're sitting in is 15 inches long. My own personal uneducated guess is that I see some metacarpals and other small hand bones, a metatarsal or two, etc. , but I welcome outside opinion. I have my eye on the one top right, first in the group of 3 so I'm especially curious about that one. Mahalo!

    Kem kem id help

    Hello, Can you help me with ID of this tooth? I am not sure whether it could be Carcharodontosaurid or something else? I bought it at a fossil show, Its supposed to be from Morocco, Kem kem group, Taouz. Scale is in cm. Measurements: CH - 2,8cm, CBL - 1,6cm, AL - 3cm and CBW - 0,8cm. Thanks in advance.

    Onchosaurus or Onchopristis

    I recently saw this sawfish rostral barb up for sale as that of an Onchosaurus, but it looks very similar to those sold as Onchopristis: so which is it? Thanks in advance for any guidance Othniel

    Deltadromeus tooth

    I recently saw this tooth for sale identified as a Deltadromeus, but it looks suspiciously similar to teeth sold as "indeterminate Abelisaurid", mine included, so I thought it would be worth checking. The seller has stated the tooth is "17mm x 10mm at the widest points". No other measurements were given. Thanks in advance for any guidance Othniel
  12. Hey, I recently went on a website that sold Spinosaurus tooth and saw that it had the description of from Oued Zem Morocco, I then asked them if it is the same as kem kem and why aren’t there Kem Kem the person then respond with because kem kem fossil are more fragile for transport which I did not believed so I asked them again, this time there was a delay maybe they went to ask someone else? Responding with it’s in Kem Kem just north, I feel like this is accurate since I heard it somewhere but not certain, may someone give me some insight on this, Thanks.

    Unusual Kem Kem tooth -- croc?

    Hi, This is only photo until the tooth I arrived--I bought it when I saw it because of the low price and the fact it is quite unusual. And this was the only pic on the site. A tooth, sold as crocodile from Kem Kem. 9mm in height. It looks a bit like Hamadasuchus, but with that ridge down the center. A different positional Hamadasuchus tooth? Or a juvenile? cheers I will post more pics when I can.
  15. Hello everyone ! I have these two fossil vertebrae from the Kem Kem formation from Morocco (no exact location) and I can't identify them. Can someone help me please? They are very different from each other. The red vertebra n.1 has an oval shape and has mirrored holes on both sides, while above it has a larger some. I initially thought it was Hybodus or Onchopristis, but I'm not sure, it could be many other shark species. The white vertebra n.2 does not have any type of hole on the edge and is almost perfectly round, I believe it is a completely different species from the first. Thank you.
  16. Hello friends, I confess I was looking forward to the return of my favorite forum. I would like you to help me identify the following fossils, the first is from a theropod from the Kem Kem area and measures 2.5 cm. The other specimen comes from Yunnan (China), it measures 3 cm and they told me that it would be a "tooth" of anomalocaris. As always, I am extremely grateful for your responses! Theropod:

    Polycotylid Plesiosaur Tooth From Kem Kem?

    I bought this tooth on impulse a few days ago. To me it looks like a fully rooted Plesiosaur tooth. It has all the characteristics of being from the Kem Kem Beds aswell. I've not seen any other rooted teeth to compare it to. So, did I score, or did I buy a crocodile tooth?
  18. hello everyone, I came across this, and the price is fair. Thought it would make a nice office conversation piece. Of course the question is whether it's real or Memorex---sorry, dating myself there, lol---not. I don't see anything glaring, but this isn't my forte. So, thoughts: From Morocco or Made in Morocco? I appreciate any thoughts or recommendations

    Crocodile or Spinosaurid jaw

    Hello, saw this for sale and was wondering whether it was croc or spinosaurid, it’s from Morocco, Africa. I’m leaning towards spinosaurid, but I’m not an expert. Please also let me know if there is any repairs/restro. Thanks a lot!
  20. According to the seller this is a parietal skull bone from a Kem Kem theropod, likely abelisaurus or carchadorontosaurus. Opinions? Kem Kem basin, Tegana fm, Red Sandstone Beds. Taouz, South Marocco. Size: 19 cm (7.48 inch)

    Kem Kem Sauropod Jaw Bone?

    This is being sold as a Sauropod Jaw bone section from the Kem Kem, but I have my doubts. Could it be Croc? Kem Kem basin, Tegana fm, Red Sandstone Beds. Taouz, South Marocco Length : 24 cm (9.45 inch)

    Kem Kem Pterosaur and Fish Teeth?

    Hi all, Wondering if you could help me identify these teeth found from the Kem Kem group. The top row I believe are Pterosaur teeth (am I correct in saying that they can only be identified as Ornithocheirid indets.?) The second row, I'm not too sure. Could they be fish? Thanks in advance, Josh

    Kem Kem questions

    Hello all I just got back from the fossil fair at Sainte-Marie-Aux-Mines, where I tried once again to find more unusual Kem Kem stuff, with quite a lot of succes this time. One of the things I got, was a set of 28 shark teeth, very uncommon in that concentration from a location where they only rarely occur. Mainly because all 28 of these teeth came from the same box, which makes me think they might be associated. Now I do have some questions about that. - Could someone in easy terms (I don't know much about shark tooth terminology) explain the difference between Haimirichia and Cenocarcharias teeth? I suspect the set is Cenocarcharias, but one tooth from a different box looks slightly different, and I hope it might be my first Haimirichia tooth. - Does anyone know how to compose a partial shark jaw? I would like to display it, but Carcharias teeth tend to all look the same position to me.I would love to eventually compose the entire jaw, but no idea how to start this project. Questions about some other pieces I got: - Has anyone invertebrate fossils from Kem Kem that are not from the Oum Tkout Pond location? Asking since I got a crab claw, which is the very invertabrate fossil I've seen from the terrestrial layers of the Kem Kem beds. So far I only saw indirect traces of them. - Does anyone have a fish tooth from there that reaches 33 millimeters? I got a very robust one now, that doesn't resemble Aidachar, the most common fish to find teeth from (apart from lungfishes). I'll probably have more questions later on. Thanks in advance.
  25. Hi there everyone. I’m embarrassed to even ask this, but I would have sworn, since it last came up for me, many years ago, that Dyrosaurus came from the Cretaceous Kem Kem beds, but everything I’m seeing now says it’s from the Eocene. So Dyrosaurus is an Eocene crocodile and would not be coming from the Kem Kem beds? Would an elosuchus probably be what would have come from the Kem Kem beds that might be mistaken for a Dyrosaurus? My knowledge of this partial jaw is that it came from the Kem Kem beds, but it was said to probably be from a dyrosaurus. It wasn’t a definitive statement, but that was the thinking. Some of elosuchus jaws I look at seem like the could match very well, but some seem off, and I would just like the thoughts of anyone who would know better than I would(most people). Thanks any and everyone who were able to help!
