FF7_Yuffie Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Hi picked this up at a mineral show over weekend here in Taiwan. It was sold as tooth from Djadochta, if anyone can take a look? Hope photos are ok. It is small, 4mm. So its tricky to get a pic, also hindered by my essential tremor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Not sure by just looking at this tooth you can confirm its from the Djadochta Fm or Mongolian. A specific locality might help. I dont see any serrations so if thats true you are not going to get a better ID than an indeterminate theropod. There are a couple of Dromaeosaurids present in that fauna but those serrations are key to an ID and if its a raptor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FF7_Yuffie Posted December 15, 2021 Author Share Posted December 15, 2021 I messaged seller. It is from Omogov province, Mongolia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 The Omnogovi province, I believe what you meant, is fairly large and includes multiple Cretaceous deposits. It does help support it from Mongola. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
