It probably is,I just wanted to check with you guys,for extra safety.

The tooth was found in the Kyzylkum desert, North of the Uzbekistan.

Here is the only picture I have. (Front and back of the tooth.

Much appreciate it.

You cannot always identify a theropod tooth from seeing its shape unless its distinctive.   This tooth is your typical theropod tooth and without more information hard to say one way or another.    Teeth from the Bissekty Formation of Uzbekistan are typically sold by Russian dealers who also offer other teeth.  If thats the case I would be more inclined to believe the description.  Its size supports T. euotica

 

Let me add when writing out the name the Genus is  capitalized while species is in lower case Timurlengia euotica and to be more proper should be italicized.

Amazing document! Very interesting.

Thank you!

Though I don’t really know the conclusion... probably a T. euonica?

Kind Regards.
