Somewhat aberrant Abelisaurid tooth


BirdsAreDinosaurs

Recommended Posts

Another Kem Kem tooth (17 mm). Pretty sure it is Abelisaurid, but it does have some noticable differences with my other Abelisaurid teeth. It is less compressed and one side of the tooth (the lingual?) is pretty flat, while the other side is not. Am I right to assume these are probably just positional differences? Could this be a more anterior tooth? Thanks!

Most certainly an Abelisaurid tooth.   We know little of what the dentition looks like but given the oval shape of the base its most likely from an anterior position
