AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Camptosaurus dispar – Fossil Tail Vertebra

For sale: an authentic fossil tail vertebra (caudal vertebra), attributed to Camptosaurus dispar, a herbivorous ornithopod dinosaur from the Late Jurassic of North America.

Camptosaurus dispar was a medium-sized herbivorous dinosaur that lived about 150 million years ago during the Late Jurassic. It inhabited the ancient floodplains and forests of what is now the western United States, alongside well-known dinosaurs such as Allosaurus, Stegosaurus and Diplodocus.

SPECIMEN INFORMATION

• Species: Camptosaurus dispar
• Type: Caudal vertebra (tail vertebra)
• Formation: Morrison Formation
• Locality: Big Horn Basin, Wyoming, USA
• Period: Late Jurassic
• Age: About 150 million years

The specimen concerns a tail vertebra that was part of the dinosaur's tail vertebral column. Caudal vertebrae form an important part of the skeleton and provide interesting information about the anatomy and structure of Camptosaurus' long, muscular tail.

The Morrison Formation is one of the best-known dinosaur-bearing geological formations in the world and has yielded an exceptional diversity of dinosaurs from the Late Jurassic of western North America.

AN EXTRAORDINARY SPECIMEN FOR COLLECTORS

Fossil vertebrae are particularly interesting pieces for collectors because they actually represent skeletal material and form a direct connection to the anatomy of extinct dinosaurs.

This specimen would be an excellent addition to a collection with Jurassic dinosaurs, ornithopods, vertebrate fossils, or material from the Morrison Formation.

INFORMATION CARD INCLUDED

The fossil is supplied with a professional information card, as shown in the photographs. The card contains the scientific name, geological period, formation, and locality of the specimen.

A fascinating piece of natural history from the Late Jurassic, originating from the famous Morrison Formation of Wyoming, USA.

Locality: Big Horn Basin, Wyoming, USA
