Geological Formation: Tiouraren Fm Age: Middle Jurassic, Bathonian stage ( 167 million years) Size: 6,1cm REF.: #S588 DESCRIPTION: Extremely rare specimen. Due to its morphology, it is an ungual toe claw belonging to an medium-big sized theropod dinosaur. It is very difficult to arrive at a precise taxonomic assignment and ID when only one isolated claw is available. Be that as it may, it is a jewel worthy of the most exquisite collectors. Its morphology resembles the claws of megalosaurids, although a precise taxonomic assignment cannot be made, until there is more literature to compare with, as well as new discoveries.
