Description from the seller
Scientific name: Theropod Dinosaur Manus claw - Likely belonging to Alvarezsauridae family
Location: Gadoufaoua, Téneré Desert, Niger.
Geological Formation: Elrhaz Fm
Age: Lower Cretaceous, Aptian/Albian stage ( 113 million years)
Size: 2,22cm
REF.: J115
DESCRIPTION:
Extremely rare specimen. Due to its morphology, it should belong to an small-medium sized predator theropod dinosaur. It is very difficult to arrive at a precise taxonomic assignment and ID when only one isolated claw is available. Be that as it may, its a jewel worthy of the most exquisite collectors.
Its morphology does not match any of the officially described theropods from Niger. Although its morphology is reminiscent of some small theropods of the family Alvarezsauridae, a precise taxonomic assignment cannot be made until there is more literature to compare with, as well as new future discoveries.
Observations: Nicely preserved specimen. It only has one glued but not restored fracture.
All our fossils come with Certificate of Authenticity. Every week, the issued Certificates of Authenticity are updated in our website database verification system. If you find that your certificate has not yet been updated, please contact us and we will update it immediately. Display box included.
IMPORTANT SHIPPING INFORMATION: All items with value between 15 and 800 Euros are now impossible to get them shipped to USA due to the new negulataions of the USA customs administration. Sorry for the inconveniences.
