  1. This supposed real Cretaceous croc from Khourigba, Morocco is up for auction and, uh, isn't this just a painted cast with some real croc teeth thrown in?
  2. I just got this orthoceras fossil from the atlas mountains if Morocco. I was wondering if they was a formation associated with it? I've got the age, but not the formation, if any. Thanks, Tyler
  3. Notidanodon

    What are these?

    I was just wondering what the species for the trilobites are but I’m not sure what the 3rd thing is as it looks like an ammonoid or nautiloids from most angles but it doesn’t have an aphycyus it has an operculum so is it a devils tonail thanks
  4. I got this tooth mixed in with a bunch of small Moroccan stuff and it struck me as something a little different. To me it bears a striking resemblance to Palaeocarcharodon, without the serrated blade. It doesn’t look right for Otodus or Cretalamna to me, it’s too delicate and thin, very much like Palaeocarcharodon. Any thoughts or suggestions on it identity would be appreciated. Happy newyear!

    Cretaceous Isopod from Morocco

    Just in time for the Holidays... The mysterious isopods from Gara es Sbâa, Morocco, have recently been described: Corbacho, J., Morrison, S. & Alonso, M. 2018 First Mention of Unusuropode castroi Duarte & Santos, 1962 (Crustacea: Isopoda) in the Upper Cretaceous of Gara es Sbâa Lagerstätte, South-Eastern Morocco.

    Deltadromeus tooth?

    I've been looking at this tooth which is labeled as Deltadromeus agilis from the Kem Kem Basin by the seller. I know labeling teeth as Deltadromeus is iffy due to the lack of skull material, so does anyone have an idea of a possible classification for it? I've tried looking at Troodon's Kem Kem theropod teeth guide but haven't managed to make an ID. Any help would be appreciated!
  7. Hello all, I’m looking to purchase these Mosasaur jaws for a pretty steep price. From what I can tell from them, they look legitimate to me using what I have learned previously from here. But I just want some second opinions by people who have much more expertise than I. These pictures were taken by one of the shop employees, so I apologize for the lack of angles and close shots. Thank you all so much!
  8. The title explains it but for a little more prepping or starting prep need to know roughly what it is before I can be comfortable in my work appears to have a rather odd placed general spine on the right and the head is not shaped like a holladrops. Thanks in advance Matt

    Moroccan ammonite

    Hi, Father Christmas broughted this cute huge ammonite he found in Morocco, but he forgot its age an name. Any ideas ? Each square of the floor is 2 cm wide.
  11. Hi all, i contacted a seller from morocco and he sent me these trilo photos. Watching fine details like eyes etc they seem real but i'm newby and i prefer to ask you. Can you also tell me the average price for that species? thank you

  13. Hello!!! I want to buy some trilobites. The seller send me these photos. What do you think? Fakes, good ones, not good? I don’t know nothing about trilobites... Thank you so much!!!!
  14. So I had been browsing for some new fossils, and stumbled over a nice Moroccan fossil on a seemingly american website. And they're selling this (almost fantastic) fossil, of a part of a skull, allegedly from either a Carcharodontosaurus or a Deltadromeus (Most likely not a delta). But is it legit?

    drotops megalomanicus?

    Just curios as to what species this is I looked at phacops but non seem to have such defined bumps for a better word also the eyes don't match up at least not to the ones I have looked at. Again questioning this id because what is exposed so far is rather small 0.86" by 0.80" and the size of the matrix block is 2.51" by 2.34" Also I am prepping this currently so not fully exposed yet don't know if that will hinder the possibility of confirming an id. Thanks Matt
  16. Can anyone please offer an opinion on this? The bone appears to be genuine, as far as I can tell, but all but one of the teeth are added in after. The back of the skull seems to be in the wrong position in relation to the frontal bone - does this imply compositing? Something looks 'off' to me, but I haven't seen all that many skulls like this. Combine that with the low-resolution photos and I thought I'd ask for some opinions. Thank you.

    Metacanthina issamourensis

    From the album: Trilobites

  18. Taxonomy from Khalloufi et al. 2010. So far this fish was only known from Ein Yabrud, Ramallah. Description by Khalloufi et al. 2010, p. 47: "The diamond-shaped body of ca. 70mm in standard length is almost twice higher than long (the standard length represents 51% of the total depth). The axial skeleton comprises 33-34 vertebrae, with abdominalcentra anteroposteriorly constricted. The last abdominal vertebrae possess elongated parapophyses which support small ribs. The posterior predorsal scutes have elongated lateral wings, and the last scute is claw-shaped. The ventral scute series is formed by about 35 scutes with very elongated lateral wings. The scutes located posteriorly to the apex of the ventral profile possess a strong posteriorly oriented spine." Identified by B. Khalloufi, Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle Paris. References: B. Khalloufi, R. Zaragüeta-Bagils, and H. Lelièvre (2010) Rhombichthys intoccabilis, gen. et sp. nov.

    Mini Mosasaur collection

    From the album: Marine reptiles and mammals

    A little collection of assorted mosasaur fossils from 2 different places that I got when I first started collecting. 2 different types of vertebrae, one is mosasaur, and the other is a questionable claim of mosasaur, a corprolite that was claimed to be that of a mosasaur, a tooth, & 7 rib fragments. 2 ribs have predation marks, as well as the large vertebra. The large vert has a round tooth indent on the very center. The 2nd rib down has tooth scratches along the surfaces, & 3rd rib down has a round tooth indent in the center, which is probably what caused a strip across the middle to break off. There are 2 other tooth marks on that rib as well, forming a diagonal line from above left of the center indent, breaking off a piece along the top, to below right.

    Mosasaur premaxillary bones

    From the album: Marine reptiles and mammals

    2 unidentified mosasaur species' anterior end of premaxillary bones. One with teeth broken off just beyond the skull, and the other has 2 remaining teeth, with the rest broken off at the level of the skull. the larger fossil was found in the phosphate mines of Khouribga, Morocco. ive since lost the information for the smaller fossil, sadly.

    Cretaceous crocodile; likely Dyrosaurus

    From the album: Marine reptiles and mammals

    Unidentified Cretaceous crocodile species, suggested by multiple people, to appear to be a Dyrosaurus, came from the second phosphatic layer of a phosphate mine(what a shocker!)around the suburbs of Khouribga, Morocco. Original teeth, not replacements. Have gone through and cleaned up the base of some of the ones that had some sand around them.
