Description
Carcharodontosaurus Dinosaur Tooth Fossil
This fossil is identified as a Carcharodontosaurus dinosaur tooth from the Kem Kem Beds of the Tegana Formation, Upper Cretaceous, Cenomanian. It is associated with the Kem Kem Basin in Morocco, a significant North African fossil region known for its rich Upper Cretaceous vertebrate record. The identification makes this specimen an appealing addition for dinosaur fossil collectors, palaeontology enthusiasts, museum-style displays and educational collections.
Fossil Identification and Geological Context
Carcharodontosaurus was a large predatory theropod dinosaur known from the Upper Cretaceous of North Africa. Its name is commonly translated as “shark-toothed lizard,” reflecting the characteristic concept behind its scientific name. This listing concerns a dinosaur tooth fossil identified with Carcharodontosaurus and connected with the Cenomanian stage of the Upper Cretaceous.
The Kem Kem Beds, within the Tegana Formation, preserve a notable fossil assemblage from the Kem Kem Basin of Morocco. Fossils from this geological setting are of particular interest because they provide evidence of the ancient vertebrate life of North Africa during the Cenomanian. The geological information gives this specimen useful context for collectors who value both the fossil itself and its place within Earth’s deep-time history.
Collector and Display Appeal
A Carcharodontosaurus tooth is a compelling subject for fossil collections because it represents one of the best-known predatory dinosaur groups from the African Upper Cretaceous. The combination of dinosaur identification, Cenomanian age, Tegana Formation association and Moroccan Kem Kem Basin location gives this specimen strong educational and display interest.
It can be incorporated into a personal fossil collection, dinosaur-themed presentation, classroom resource or natural-history display. The specimen also offers an opportunity to discuss theropod dinosaurs, dinosaur palaeontology, North African fossil localities and the geological history of the Upper Cretaceous. Buyers should refer to the listing photographs for the presentation and full sizing information of the specimen offered.
