Pliosaur tooth?

I did a Google search using the photo provided. Seems that this particular tooth is for sale at least as two different orders of creature. I do not understand the foreign language of the ad copy so I could be mistaken, but repeat the search yourself and decide.

It's most likely an Elasmosauridae tooth based on this picture. I know the current seller has it listed as a Pterosaur tooth but Pterosaur fossils aren't found in the Stary Oskol Cretaceous quarries. That said, Elasmosauridae teeth are very rare from that locality so it's a worthwhile buy to me

Looking forward to meeting my fellow Singaporean collectors! Do PM me if you are a Singaporean, or an overseas fossil-collector coming here for a holiday!
