BonuFrailman Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Morning all! Wanted to know if this looks like an Allosaurus tooth. Seller says it’s from Dana Quarry in Wyoming. Says it measures 5/8 at longest side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runner64 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Morrison Theropod teeth are all so similar that the only way to differentiate is to do a serration count per mm and to look at the shape of the serrations. I’d ask the seller to do a count on both sides for you and to take pictures and let us know if you get that info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyBoy Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Not sure you can say anything based on that fragment other than its a theropod tooth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpc Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Allosaurus is a good guess, but it is only a guess with a fragment like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimin013 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 I would say it's an theropod tooth but would not be able to id it to a species. What also makes it even more difficult to ID is that it is a partial tooth nevertheless that is not to say it isn't an Allosaurus tooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SULLY Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Positive ID will be tough with this one because it’s in pretty rough shape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
