Posted here are some very nice fossils for collectors just be aware that the descriptions might not be as advertised. Seller calls this a Pterosaur claw, I'm not sure what it belongs to but nothing is published to support his claim Seller list this as a superb Spinosaurus phalanx toe bone. Looks more like a hand bone, carpal or metacarpal. Also we do not know if it comes from the species Spinosaurus better described as Spinosaurid indet. Seller is describing this as a Spinosaurus caudal vertebra. Spino caudal vertebrae are typically more box shaped so I doubt it's from one. Not certain what's it's from. Seller is offering a very nice upper and lower jaw bone from the Pterosaur Alanqa saharica. I question if these are associated and if either are lowers jaw sections.. Ibrahim's reconstructed jaw shows the mandible as being much thinner than the upper and more like the offering. I also will add that isolated upper jaws may be hard to identify to a specific species and are better described as Azhdarchoid indet. since along with Alanqa the new species Xericeps may have similar uppers but it's currently unknown. Seller is offering this pair of bones as a Spinosaurus Phalanx bone and Claw. Unfortunately the phalanx is a hand bone, carpal and not associated with the claw. The claw may belong to one of the Spinosaurid's but without a ventral view it's uncertain its one. Offering for a large toe bone from a Spinosaurus. Looks more like a Carpal from an unknown Spinosaurid. Offering big money for this Spinosaurus complete foot. Unfortunately there are many things wrong with this foot. Most of the phalanx don't fit their positions and may not be Spinosaurid. The claws are undersized for the foot and cannot determine if they belong to a Spinosaurid with the photos that are provided. A foot should look like this Remind buyers that all teeth offered as Spinosaurus may not belong to that species but one of the other Spinosaurids that may be present in that fauna either currently described or yet to be identified
