AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Description
This lot presents a genuine fossil bone attributed to a theropod dinosaur of the Abelisauridae family, a distinctive group of carnivorous dinosaurs that lived during the Late Cretaceous in Gondwanan landmasses.
The specimen is identified as a radius, a forelimb bone characteristic of theropods. Abelisaurids are especially notable for their reduced and anatomically unique forelimbs, making isolated arm elements particularly interesting and collectible from both a scientific and display perspective.
Due to the isolated nature of the specimen, the taxonomic and anatomical attribution is made in good faith and remains tentative, following standard paleontological practice.

Approx.3,8 x 3,5 x 2,2 cm
Condition
Fossil bone in good natural condition
No visible restorations or reconstructions
Natural bone surface and fossilization texture preserved

Seller's Story
Don & Donna Fossils finally moved to Spain.
We are a Don & Donna Fossils, a couple united by the love of exploration, field research, professional preparation and museum display of fossils from all over the world.
This formula, combined with a desire to improve, makes us a winning team dedicated to our Fossil World.
Larisa is been passionate about fossils since was a child. Her strengths are perfectionism, perseverance and creativity, hence her ability to work and prepare these fossils as authentic, unique and aesthetic as possible. The pieces with which she is famous and which she boast the most are spiny ammonites.
I, Don, started fossil hunting in 1987, going from a passionate collector to a professional preparator and researcher. In all these years I have traveled searching for fossils in many parts of the world.
Our fossils are present in private collections in the United States, Singapore, Taiwan, as well as in prestigious museums in the Uk, China and Japan.
Quality in the preparation of the material and seriousness in managing the shipment in the best possible way distinguish us.
