AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

EXCEPTIONAL REAL DINOSAUR PELVIS

This extraordinary fossil features a complete pelvis from Psittacosaurus, an early ceratopsid dinosaur that lived during the Lower Cretaceous period over 100 million years ago.

The pelvis includes the ilium and sacral vertebrae preserved in remarkable detail.

The ilium is a key bone in the dinosaur pelvis, connecting the hip to the spine. It's the largest and uppermost bone of the hip, and its shape and orientation played a crucial role in how dinosaurs walked and moved.

This specimen offers a rare and complete view of the dinosaur's structure, making it an invaluable discovery for any serious collector, paleontologist, or institution.

The Psittacosaurus, known for its parrot-like beak and bipedal stance, provides a fascinating example of early ceratopsid anatomy.

Complete pelvis fossils from this species are extraordinarily scarce, making this fossil not just a beautiful display of natural history, but a significant piece of scientific value.

This Psittacosaurus arm represents a critical part of the creature's biology, offering both an aesthetic masterpiece and a deep insight into the evolution of ceratopsid dinosaurs.

With its striking level of preservation, authenticity, and scientific significance, this fossil will undoubtedly become the centerpiece of any collection, making it a rare and extraordinary addition to the field of paleontology.


Psittacosaurus Mazongshensis Yu 1997, from the Lower Xinminbao Formation of Ganzu Province, China.

Ilium is 15 cm
Sacral vertebrae are 13.8 cm.

Nice display included.

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. Don & Donna
