A really weird bone from the Kem Kem beds. The bone seems complete and is hollow with very thin walls. However, I cannot find any reference that exactly matches this. The only thing it vaguely resembles are is the hyoid bone of a Pterosaur. Though all those examples are tiny compared to this bone. So at the moment my best guess for this bone is the hyoid bone of a huge Pterosaur.
Location: Kem Kem beds, Morocco
Age: Cenomanian, Upper Cretaceous
