7″ Genuine Spinosaurus Dinosaur Tooth Fossil – Kem Kem Beds, Tegana Formation, Aptian Stage, Cretaceous: Kem Kem Basin, Morocco

A truly colossal fossil specimen — this 7-inch Spinosaurus tooth is a rare and highly desirable piece from one of the largest known theropod dinosaurs. It originates from the world-renowned Kem Kem Beds in the Tegana Formation, within the Kem Kem Basin of southeastern Morocco. This fossil dates back to the Aptian stage of the Early Cretaceous, approximately 113 to 100 million years ago.

Fossil Type & Species:

  • Type: Vertebrate Fossil (Tooth – Crown Specimen)
  • Species: Spinosaurus aegyptiacus
  • Order: Theropoda
  • Superfamily: Megalosauroidea
  • Family: Spinosauridae
  • First Described By: Ernst Stromer, German palaeontologist, 1915

Geological Details:

  • Formation: Tegana Formation
  • Beds: Kem Kem Beds
  • Geological Stage: Aptian (Early Cretaceous)
  • Biozone: Kem Kem Compound Assemblage Zone
  • Depositional Environment: Dynamic fluvial and deltaic ecosystem composed of ancient rivers, floodplains, and lakebeds. This region preserved a rich diversity of both aquatic and terrestrial prehistoric life in iron-rich sedimentary deposits.

Morphology & Features: This magnificent tooth features all the distinctive traits of a Spinosaurus specimen:

  • Elongated conical shape — adapted for grasping slippery aquatic prey
  • Non-serrated edges — unlike most other theropod dinosaurs
  • Vertical enamel ridges along the shaft
  • Fossilised colour tones of deep red, brown, ochre, and sand hues
  • Excellent crown preservation with tapering natural tip and broken base at the root

Notable: Spinosaurus aegyptiacus is believed to be the largest theropod dinosaur ever discovered — potentially surpassing even Tyrannosaurus rex in length. With a crocodilian skull, tall neural spines forming a sail, and adaptations for a semi-aquatic lifestyle, it remains one of the most fascinating dinosaurs known to science.

Teeth of this impressive size (7 inches) are exceptionally rare and highly collectible. Most specimens this large are found only in museum collections.

Specimen Details:

  • Origin: Kem Kem Basin, near Taouz, Morocco
  • Formation: Tegana Formation, Kem Kem Beds
  • Species: Spinosaurus aegyptiacus
  • Fossil Type: Isolated Tooth (Crown)
  • Length: Approx. 7 inches
  • Size Reference: Scale rule square = 1cm (please see photo for full sizing)
  • Note: The actual fossil shown in the photo is the one you will receive

Description

Genuine Spinosaurus Dinosaur Tooth Fossil

Fossil Identification

This listing features a genuine Spinosaurus dinosaur tooth fossil identified with the Kem Kem Beds of the Tegana Formation, Upper Cretaceous, Cenomanian. The specimen is associated with the Kem Kem Basin in Morocco, a highly important fossil-bearing region known for its Cretaceous vertebrate discoveries. Its identification as a Spinosaurus tooth makes it an appealing addition to dinosaur fossil collections, natural history displays and educational geology collections.

The supplied specimen is presented as a 7-inch fossil, offering an impressive display presence for collectors interested in theropod dinosaurs. Spinosaurus was a large predatory dinosaur within the spinosaur group, notable in the scientific record for its specialised relationship with aquatic and riverine environments. Spinosaur fossils are especially valued by collectors because they represent an unusual and distinctive branch of theropod dinosaur evolution.

Geological Context

The Kem Kem Beds belong to the Tegana Formation and are assigned to the Upper Cretaceous Cenomanian stage. The Kem Kem Basin of Morocco preserves an important record of Cretaceous life from a region that supported diverse prehistoric ecosystems. Fossils from this setting are of particular interest because they provide evidence of the animals and environments that existed in North Africa during the Cenomanian.

A geological stage is a formally recognised interval of Earth history. The Cenomanian forms part of the Upper Cretaceous and is widely used by palaeontologists to place fossils within a precise geological framework. The combination of Spinosaurus identification, Kem Kem Beds locality and Cenomanian age gives this fossil strong relevance for collectors studying dinosaur evolution, Cretaceous palaeontology and North African fossil deposits.

Collector and Display Appeal

This Spinosaurus tooth fossil is suited to display in a home collection, study, museum-style cabinet or classroom setting. It provides a tangible connection to Cretaceous palaeontology and can be used as a conversation piece when exploring dinosaur diversity, fossil formation and the ancient environments of Morocco. Its documented formation and geological age add useful context for collectors who value locality and stratigraphic information alongside visual appeal.

The fossil may be displayed as part of a dedicated dinosaur collection or alongside other specimens from the Upper Cretaceous. It is also suitable for anyone interested in theropods, spinosaurids, Moroccan fossils, geological stages or the palaeontology of the Kem Kem Basin.
