AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
CARCHARODONTOSAURUS SAHARICUS – FOSSIL TOOTH
For sale: an authentic fossil tooth from Carcharodontosaurus saharicus, one of the largest and most impressive predatory dinosaurs of the Late Cretaceous in North Africa.
Carcharodontosaurus saharicus was a huge carcharodontosaurid theropod and one of the apex predators of its time. The species lived in North Africa during the Cenomanian, approximately 96 million years ago, and inhabited the same ecosystem as, among others, Spinosaurus. Fossil teeth attributed to Carcharodontosaurus are known from Morocco’s Cenomanian Kem Kem Group.
SPECIMEN INFORMATION
• Species: Carcharodontosaurus saharicus
• Type: Fossil tooth
• Geological group: Kem Kem Group
• Locality: Kem Kem Beds, south of Taouz, Morocco
• Period: Late Cretaceous
• Stage: Cenomanian
• Age: approximately 96 million years
Carcharodontosaurus teeth are characteristically blade-shaped and laterally compressed, with sharp cutting edges and fine serrations. These specialized teeth were ideally suited to injuring and slicing through prey. Similar teeth attributed to Carcharodontosaurus are well documented from the Kem Kem Group.
This specimen has a beautiful natural fossil color and a clearly recognizable tooth shape. Its natural texture and features of the fossilization process give it an authentic appearance.
INFORMATION CARD INCLUDED
Each tooth comes with a professional information card, as shown in the photos. It lists the scientific name, geological age, geological group, and locality.
A wonderful fossil for dinosaur and paleontology collectors. It is special to hold an authentic tooth from one of North Africa’s largest predatory dinosaurs—a piece of history approximately 96 million years old.
Dimensions: 13.8 cm
Origin: Kem Kem Beds, south of Taouz, Morocco.
