Hello, I saw this tooth labeled as an allosaurus from the Morrison formation. Not sure if it’s allosaurus but does look to be. Tooth is from Moffat Counth Colorado. Also is that a sauropod tooth on the matrix on the 2nd pic? Allo tooth is 4.1 cm. Thanks.

Hi Everyone! I've been looking around at some potential Allosaurus teeth I'd like to buy but before I do I'd like to make sure that's actually what they are and learn how to id them, as I'm assuming the Jurassic fossil market is as rife with misidentification as the Cretaceous one. Here's one I'm curious about, very clearly a Theropod tooth. Apparently found in the Morrison Formation of Washakie County, Wyoming and measures 1.08 Inches in a straight line measurement. So what do you all think? Is it Allosaurus? How do you know? Is it even possible to pin a Morrison tooth on Allosaurus or is there some other obscure genus with nearly identical teeth in that formation I don't know about like a Daspletosaurus/Gorgosaurus "Tyrannosaur indet." situation? Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone, I just obtained my first non-Moroccan theropod tooth. It's from the Morrison formation and measures 1 and 3/8ths of an inch. I assume it is from an Allosaurus, because of how common Allosaurus is in the Morrison, but the rarer Torvosaurus and Ceratosaurus are the only other possibilities. It would be interesting to hear some opinions, however the lack of visible serrations presents some problems. @Troodon Thanks in Advance!
