From the album: Triassic
From the "dawn" of the Dinosaurs, this small tooth represents an early theropod. Unlike the other serrated archosauriform teeth present in the formation, this tooth is ziphodont - thin and labio-lingually compressed - the archetypical tooth form that most theropods adhered to since their beginnings.-

A new paper regarding a new primitive Early Jurassic theropod from the Lufeng Basin of China is out: Hai-Lu You, Yoichi Azuma, Tao Wang, Ya-Ming Wang and Zhi-Ming (2014). "The first well-preserved coelophysoid theropod dinosaur from Asia". Zootaxa 3873 (3): 233–249. doi:10.11646/zootaxa.3873.3.3. Coming upon the heels of another basal theropod, Tachiraptor, Panguraptor represents the second basal theropod from the Lufeng basin (the first being Sinosaurus). Since China was so far apart from other continents yielding Early Jurassic theropods (Africa, North America, South America, India), more research is needed to determine how Early Jurassic theropods made it to China from Gondwana.
