Recommended Posts

Hi I’ve been wondering if these teeth have the correct id. Sauropod tooth is labeled as a Apatosaurus and the theropod tooth is labeled as Torvosaurus .The sauropod tooth is from Carbon County Wyoming and the the theropod tooth is from Moffat county Colorado. The theropod tooth is 1.5 inches and the sauropod tooth is .61 inches.

Very difficult to assign a genus to that sauropod tip given how many diplodocoids exist in the Morrison.

Your theropod tooth might be a Torvosaurus but the preservation makes it difficult to see the entire travel of the mesial carina and no informatio about the serration density has been provided.
