Dinosaur Red Flags

[Troodon]

This weeks round of red flags

Recent listings offers a number of very long Spinosaur teeth at very low prices.   Most of these have fake roots and more.   Avoid and post here before you buy.  A member just got taken last week so please be careful. Large rooted teeth are expensive.

 

 

A finger bone is offered described from a Spinosaurus.   I think its a carpal but we have no scientific evidence that this morphology is from a Spinosaur.   Its a very nice indeterminate Theropod carpal.

 

This bone is listed coming from a Carcharodontosaurus.  We have no idea who is the owner of this bone, no associated foot material has been published for any large Kem Kem Theropod.    Best identified as indeterminate Theropod.

 

Lots of fake Dinosaur eggs continue to be listed.  Please post interest before you buy.

 

 

A pair of Aublysodon Premaxillary teeth offered for sale.  Reminder this is no longer considered a valid species, they are best identified as Tyrannosaurid indet.  Most likely Nanotyrannus.

Thanks for posting @Troodon.

Thanks for sharing

 

Just out of curiosity's sake:
This is up at a UK shop. Described as a tooth from Spinosaurus Aegyptiacus from KemKem (yes they even give you the exact species, but I do understand this is not possible). 

Way out of my budget, but just interested if this is real. It's 6.22 in long

Yes that does look like one of the rare examples of a rooted Spinosaurid tooth that has not been tampered with.

Wow that a very nice rooted tooth

Ok, thanks   That give me a feeling of what a good rooted tooth should look like.
