Hello, i am a Student from Germany.

 

I have recieved the Task of analyzing the huge fossil Collection of my School, which includes this tooth. According to a profile (that appears to have been made by a fifth or sixt-grader), it is from Oued-Zem / Khouribgha, morocco.

My best guess is that it is from Prognathodon. It is about 2,5 to 3 cm Long and 1 cm thick.

 

Many thanks in Advance!!!

Here is the profile. As you can see, it is pretty bad (it labels a mosasaurus as a ichtyosaur).

 

But anyway, what is your assessment of the tooth?
