rocket Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 (edited) I am sure this is Otodus obliquus from tertiary age (paleocene / eocene) of morocco, Region of Khouribga / Ouled Abdoun basin Edited May 23 by rocket 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brevicollis Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 (edited) I agree with @rocket, this really looks like an Otodus obliquus tooth from morocco. Edited May 23 by Brevicollis Are good signatures really that important ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the name completly, but its listed as "Otudus" in my brain... I changed it to correct. Edited May 23 by Brevicollis 1 Are good signatures really that important ?
