Hi, would like to ask what you guys think of this tooth? Its labelled as suchomimus though Im not really the best at ID-ing them. Using Troodon’s guide, it does have some serrations visible with also similar texture present. Its also .8 inches.  Its location says its from Elrhaz Formation, Gadoufaoua, Niger. Thanks in advance

Here is a brighter photo of one of your images clearly showing the marginal dentulation.  So this along with the texture and longitudinal fluting says Suchomimus.  Nice tooth.

Hi all just wanted to update on this tooth. Thanks all for your input! Just got it today, and upon opening it, am really glad I stuck with my first choice lol. The serrations are undoubtedly present and are quite visible. Seller also included a free sarcho tooth which I was pretty ecstatic about, another addition to the collection I wasnt expecting.
