Description from the seller

This lot offers a set of indeterminate abelisaurid teeth (the largest measures 2.6 cm), possibly 'Rugops Primus'.
Sierra de las Carinas very well preserved, perfect enamel.
Beautiful color, typical of the material originating from this zone of fluvial deposits, the red sands of the beds of Kem-Kem, located along the border between Morocco and Algeria. These are continental deposits where various species of vertebrates have been discovered, including elasmobranchs, bony fish, coelacanths, turtles, pterosaurs, dinosaurs, birds, and crocodiles.

It has been referred to as a zone where danger lurks by land, sea, and air.

The Abelisaurids are a family of theropod dinosaurs that were widely diversified during the Middle and Late Cretaceous in Africa, South America, India, and Madagascar. They were animals of medium to large size, generally ranging from 5 to 8 meters, characterized by their reduced arms and short skulls. Several species have been described in the Kem-Kem Basin.
