Hi Guys, I recently got some photos from a friend of mine who bought these teeth from Niger. When he bought them, the seller told him that there is at least one tooth of Kryptops, Eocarcharia and Afrovenator in this lot, but he wanted to be sure. What do you think? In my opinion the first is from Afrovenator, the second and third from Eocarcharia, and about the last I'm not so sure. Thank you in advance.

While I was sorting through my collection of croc fossils, I came across these Elrhaz Formation teeth I bought 6 months ago and never did figure out what they were. I assume they are croc and not some kind of fish, though I could be wrong. I've never seen these apart from the one source I purchased them from. I've been told they were Sarcosuchus, then Kaprosuchus, then Suchomimus. Pretty sure it's not Sarcosuchus, and the images I can find of Kaprosuchus don't seem to match. Suchomimus, I don't know, but my gut feeling is, no, I've seen dozens of Suchomimus and fake-Sucho crocs, and never found a match. If anyone is familiar with this morphology, any input is appreciated. Locale: Gaoufaoua, Tenere Desert, Niger Last picture is a couple of other crocs from the same lot. One (the robust one on the right) is probably Sarcosuchus.

I bought this Sarcosuchus imperator tooth on the internet. This tooth comes from the Erlhaz formation in Niger. It measures 1.92 inch. It is 113 million year old. I trust this seller but i would still like to have your opinion. Do you think it is Sarcosuchus imperator Tooth ?
