AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Scientific Name:
Rebbachisaurus garasbae
Location:
Kem Kem Valley, Morocco
Stage:
Late Cretaceous
Size:
Approximately 18–19 cm
Description of the fossil:
A large caudal vertebra belonging to the giant sauropod Rebbachisaurus garasbae, one of the most imposing herbivores of the African Cretaceous.
These kinds of vertebrae, especially from the tail region, are extremely rare, as sauropod remains from the Kem Kem tend to appear highly fragmented due to intense predation by large carnivores such as Carcharodontosaurus.
The specimen is presented in a completely natural state, with a clearly defined morphology, solid volume, and a skeletal structure that preserves exceptional detail for its size.
Its rarity is notable: complete or near-complete caudal vertebrae of Rebbachisaurus are practically nonexistent on the market, making this specimen a unique piece of enormous value for advanced collectors or museum display cases.
Its size, between 18 and 19 cm, places it among the largest and best-preserved known specimens of this sauropod in the fossil trade.
