Hello! I saw this tooth listed online as a Suchomimus tooth from the Elrhaz formation in niger I wanted to know if it was a crocodile or a Suchomimus.

I've seen that one before.  Looks like one to me.  I'd wait for additional comments though.  I'm no expert on these.

Has the seller provide you a locality where this was found?  The vertical ridges and beaded carina are characteristics found on Suchomimus teeth which I can see.

I know which seller this one comes from. It is listed as coming from Gadoufaoua and typical preservation for Elrhaz fm. So it is Suchomimus, at least for now.
