Real Morocco Mosasaur teeth?


Seguidora-de-Isis

Recommended Posts

In this small lot, the seller is selling several Morocco Mosasaur teeth. Please, then I have two questions:

 

01 - Are all these teeth real?

 

02 - Is there any way to distinguish which one is Prognathodon, Halisaurus and etc?

Thanks for all the comments!

Yep the teeth are real and LordT can help with the ID's.  Teeth are so common not its not worth it to fake them

Loose teeth are notoriously difficult to properly identify. And often it's not even possible to put a genus on it. That being said, I don't see anything that resembles Halisaurus here, as they have fairly slender teeth that are quite recurved. Nor do I see teeth that resemble "Platecarpus" ptychodon. This could be anything from Prognathodon or Eremiasaurus to Mosasaurus.

 

 

And yeah, these are real teeth. They are so common it's no use to fake these. It's the rooted ones that are rarer and as a result are more often faked.

Real, but not top quality. 

Can't say which genera they're from.
