M3gal0don_M4n Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 What kind of tooth is this. I was thinking Megalosaurid. I only have one image. Signature goes here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brevicollis Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 (edited) Hello, Where was this found ? The formation is one of the most important things to know if you want to have an ID.

M3gal0don_M4n Posted April 30 Author Share Posted April 30 That was what I was thinking. Baby Carcharodontasaurus? Signature goes here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brevicollis Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 It might be Carcharodontosaurid, but I think that Abelisaurid might be also a reasonable guess. But when even the formation is questionable, I think we can only ID it as theropoda indet. Maybe a more experienced member can further identify it. @North, @FB003, @Phos_01 1 I like fossils...

FB003 Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Got me. Feel free to take a look at these guides. You'll need alot more than a single picture though. Locality being the single most important item. At that size though could be anything. *Frank* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frightmares Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 I think it looks more Abelisaurid from Kem Kem, as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 I can say that it does not appear to be megalosaurid. If it is from Ivalo III, it would be theropod indet since so little is known from there. But I have not seen too many teeth from there. What comes to the preservation I would consider Maevarano. Shape could fit with Majungasaurus, but denticles look quite rough compared what I usually see. But hard to say for sure from one picture. There's no such thing as too many teeth.

Phos_01 Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 On 4/30/2024 at 3:54 PM, North said: Shape could fit with Majungasaurus Yes , this is appears to be a tooth of Majungasaurus crenatissimus from Madagascar, an Abelisauridae. They are not that rare, perhaps a little more rare then an Abelisaurid from the KemKem groups. A seller should provide proper provenance, always. If not: Avoid - unless you are 100% sure to know what you are doing, in this case you cannot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
