AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Scientific name: Ind Theropod
Location: Kem Kem beds (Africa)
Age: Cretaceous, 96 million years
Tooth size: 3.8 cm
REF: 4364
Description:
Extremely rare tooth from a large predator of Africa’s Cretaceous. Stromer, in 1934, named this species Bahariasaurus; in recent years the name was dropped due to lack of skeletons. To this day we can only call it a theropod—what dinosaur will it be then?
Tooth of very good quality, semiconical and serrated, the serrations on the ventral side remain almost intact, orange-brown in color, very good enamel.
