Scientific name: †Zarafasaura oceanis, (Vincent et al. 2011) - Elasmosaur teeth - Set of 2. Location: Oued Zem, Morocco Geological Formation: Ouled Abdoun Basin (Phosphate beds) Age: Upper Cretaceous, Maastrichtian stage, (~66 Million Years) Size: 3,1cm long (the biggest) Ref: S415 Observations: An exceptionally well-preserved specimens. They retains little part of their natural root, making them even more spectacular. Their enamel has wonderful caramel colors. They have no restorations. Just one of them has a glued fracture. Elasmosaurus teeth from the Upper Cretaceous from the Oulad Abdoun Basin are relatively more scarce than the Mosasaur ones. This huge and famous marine reptile is characterized by its long and stylized neck. Its morphology enabled it being a very specialized marine predator. Until 2011, this taxon was classified as Plesiosaurus mauritanicus. However, a later publication by Vincent et al, 2011, did a revision on this species and decides to rename it as Zarafasaura oceanis. All our fossils come with Certificate of Authenticity.
