    I saw this online, labeled as a Hoffmann mosasaur. Species was listed as Mosasaurus hoffmanni Age was listed as the Upper Cretaceous, Maastrichtian stage, (~66 Million Years) Location was listed as Oued Zem, Morocco The formation was listed as Ouled Abdoun Basin (Phosphate beds) The size listed at 6.7cm Is this true?
  2. @pachy-pleuro-whatnot-odon and I wrote a paper on Mosasaurus hoffmannii fossils from the Moroccan Phosphates. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/357836567_Occurrence_of_Mosasaurus_hoffmannii_Mantell_1829_Squamata_Mosasauridae_in_the_Maastrichtian_Phosphates_of_Morocco https://www.aaps-journal.org/pdf/JPS.C.22.0001.pdf Abstract: Marginal tooth crowns from the hypercarnivorous marine reptile Mosasaurus hoffmannii Mantell, 1829 are reported for the first time from the Late Cretaceous (Maastrichtian) phosphates of Morocco. Fossilized remains of this species are previously known from Campanian and Maastrichtian outcrops in Europe, North America, and western Asia at a paleolatitudinal belt of 30-45°N. New fossil material originates from the Upper Couche III layer of the Oulad Abdoun Basin, south of Oued Zem, Morocco. The discovery of M. hoffmannii in Morocco extends its paleobiogeographic range south to 25°N and into the southern margin of the Mediterranean Tethys. Rempert, T.H., Vinkeles Melchers, A.P.M., Rempert, A.N., Haque, M.R., and Armstrong, A.R. (2022). Occurrence of Mosasaurus hoffmannii Mantell, 1829 (Squamata, Mosasauridae) in the Maastrichtian Phosphates of Morocco. The Journal of Paleontological Sciences, 10: 1-22. It has been fun working on this project. Great to finally see it published. Many thanks to the Editorial Board of the Journal of Paleontological Sciences and Walter Stein and Dr. John Nudds for helpful review. Excavation zone in the Sidi Chennane phosphate quarry.
