Theropod dinosaur tooth id

Recommended Posts

Saw this tooth for sale, it’s from Judith river formation and from the upper Cretaceous part of the formation according to the seller. I was wondering if it could be put in a more specific group. Don’t know much about the dinosaur species that live there but maybe a small Dromaeosaurid or tyrannosaurid tooth? I understand if it can’t be put in a more specific group, anyways thanks in advance for any help with id.

Has the appearance of a tyrannosaurid.   Hard to say if its JRF since you do not have a locality and the one provided is a bit too general and most JRF is North Central.  Why locality is very important.
