TyBoy Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Saw these listed yesterday and the tooth was identified as a T-rex 1.55" long and Vertebra being from a Hadrosaur. Like to have confirmation on those ID's thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Rico Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Where was they found? Location is always key to and ID. Hell Creek is a large place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troodon Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Take the easier one first the Vert, its Ceratopsian. Hadrosaur or in this case Edmontosaurus caudal vertebrae are very easy to distinguish from Ceratopsian. The centrum is box or rectangular shape while ceratopsian are oval see pictures. . The tooth is more problematic. Nothing jumps out that says Trex although I do not have a good view of the base. Would tentatively lean toward Nanotyrannus but would like to hold it but could be a Maxillary Rex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
