Help identify

[Dinomaniac]

Is this a reptile fossil or a amphibian fossil? I need help identifying. The seller said it is a dinosaur fossil. Sorry for my English I am from china.

Hi, and  did the seller told you were it comes from and what is its age ?

[Dinomaniac]

The seller doesn't know and never said it

It is from Madagascar

I won't be able to help you further, but you might have information from here, in Fruitbat's pdf Library.

Barasaurus besairiei from permian-triassic of Madagascar

Probably Barasaurus, but there are also other small sized reptiles found in Madagascar. Its not really a dinosaur but an early parareptile. One of the better specimens from there (mostly tails and heads are missing). Seems to be quite nice.

I have one like that. I you look closer, you can often see gravels in the stomach. Maybe gastrolites?

I have the feeling I'm one of the many people thinking: "that's an awesome fossil, but I don't have anything to trade it against "

Unless of course you are willing to trade it for just a few fossil seashells  because if that's ok, I'm jumping right onto it!

 

Try posting it in the Fossil Trades thread, there will surely be someone with fossils cool enough to trade it with you.

Yeah, or one or two small clams, that I find constantly on the beach and are worth about 0 cents!

Plus quelques squelettes de sardines moulés dans du plâtre avec une teinture qui fait vieillotte, ça devrait faire l'affaire.

Plus some skeletons of sardines molded in plaster with a smattering that makes it looking old, it will do.

Yes, but at one time my wrists get tired and my eyes cross.
