JoeS Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 hmm, lingual side looks pretty flat, and ridges on both sides. Depending on if there are serrations present either Paronychodon (no serrations), but shape is a bit off; cf. Zapsalis (serrations only distal); or 2nd premaxillary tooth of a Dromaeosaur - Acheroraptor (serrations on both carinae). Let's see what @Troodon thinks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinosaur man Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Looks like its a Dromaeosaur, just can’t tell what species @Troodon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 JoeS summerized it quite well. Bit of an odd tooth and the photos are not the best but based on not seeing serrations on the distal side looks like "cf paronychodon " Might change if you can get better and closer photo. Do you have a locality (state & county) where this was found looks like JRF This taxon is most likely dubious and these teeth are probably the premaxillary of some theropod. But thats what is currently published and described. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
