AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Scientific name: Eusauropoda cf Jobaria tiguidensis (Sereno et al., 1999) - Sauropod Dinosaur Tooth
Location: Agadez region,Téneré Desert, Niger.
Geological Formation: Tiouraren Fm
Age: Middle Jurassic, Bathonian stage ( 167 million years)
Size: 4,8cm
REF.: #S600
DESCRIPTION:
Observations about our specimen: The most remarkable feature of this tooth is its size, far exceeding the average for this species. It undoubtedly belonged to a very old individual. It has no restorations or repairs of any kind. Feeding wear is also visible in the apical section.
Jobaria tiguidensis teeth, originating from the Middle Jurassic (approx. 165–167 million years ago) Tiouraren Formation in the Agadez region of Niger, are rare fossils featuring a distinct spoon-shaped (spatulate) morphology.
These large herbivores possessed these specialized teeth for stripping leaves from branches, with specimens often found displaying minimal wear.
Key details regarding Jobaria teeth from Niger:
Physical Characteristics: The teeth are generally spoon-shaped or spatulate, adapted for foraging. They are often found in lengths around 2 to 5cm.
Location and Age: Fossils are primarily found in the Tiouraren Formation in the Agadez region of the Sahara Desert, Niger. They date back to the Middle Jurassic period (Bathonian stage), not the Cretaceous as once thought.
Discovery: The dinosaur was identified by Paul Sereno's team in 1997, with significant, relatively complete skeletons found in the area.
Dietary Function: As part of a basal macronarian sauropod, Jobaria used these teeth to browse on vegetation, possibly using their necks and teeth to strip leaves.
Comparison: Unlike the numerous, delicate, pencil-like teeth of Nigersaurus, Jobaria teeth are robust and less numerous.
Note: While many sauropod teeth from this region are attributed to Jobaria, some found by collectors are labeled more generally as Eusauropoda or cf. Jobaria.
All of our fossils come with a Certificate of Authenticity. Every week, the issued Certificates of Authenticity are updated in our database verification system on our website. If you find that your certificate has not yet been updated, please contact us and we will update it immediately. Display box included.
Seller's Story
Jurassic Dreams is the world's largest online dinosaur fossils store, unrivaled as the most reputable source for authentic fossil specimens. We are the only leading online fossils store owned by an accredited geologist and paleontology expert. In addition, we have extraordinary authentic meteorites specimens from all over the universe.
With dozens of different specimens in stock... our customers come back time and again. Because, simply put, our lifetime guarantee is unbeatable.
My name is Juan A. Poblador and I have a strong academic background in Paleontology and Geology from the University of Madrid and University of Alicante. I have participated in fossil excavation projects in several locations mainly in Europe and Africa for over 10 years. Writing scientifically accurate descriptions of every specimen is one of the tasks that consume most of my time. Obviously, recognizing fake and restored fossils is second nature to me. So you can be sure that every fossil in this website has been carefully screened and inspected by me.
I have served collectors and fossil enthusiasts over the years. I have also supplied museums and institutions. I combine the study and research of significant specimens with exhibiting and selling the many other finds, which helps fund the new expeditions.
Additionally, I have a small team of support staff for logistics. I've personally trained them to handle and pack the fossils properly so that they can be shipped within 24 hours and arrive at your door in one piece.
Last but not least, I'm fortunate to have a great network of other seasoned paleontologists with whom I discuss the rarest items, new discoveries, and exploration trips to remote quarries... If I don't know something, the paleontological community really helps out.
I like to manage Jurassic Dreams as a well curated online exhibition of museum grade pieces. I'm a collector myself and I love to share the knowledge with other fellow collectors. That's why I will respond to any email when you have any doubt or when you buy, and you'll have a personalized fossil selection experience.
