Description
Fossil Type & Species: Rebbachisaurus (sauropod dinosaur – herbivorous long-necked)
Geological Formation: Tegana Formation, Kem Kem Beds
Geological Age: Aptian Stage, Early Cretaceous (approx. 125 – 113 million years ago)
Locality: Kem Kem Basin, southeastern Morocco
Detailed Description: This listing features a genuine fossil tooth from Rebbachisaurus, a long-necked sauropod dinosaur that lived during the Early Cretaceous period. Rebbachisaurus was a massive herbivore, part of the Diplodocoidea group, and roamed the floodplains of what is now North Africa.
Collected from the Kem Kem Beds of the Tegana Formation in southeastern Morocco, this tooth represents a rare and fascinating glimpse into the life of a plant-eating giant. The tooth is characterized by its cylindrical shape and worn crown, indicative of its use in stripping vegetation. Though sauropod teeth are rarer than theropod finds in the Kem Kem, they offer critical insight into the herbivorous side of this ancient ecosystem.
Geological Insight: The Kem Kem Beds are world-renowned for their rich fossil deposits from the Aptian Stage of the Early Cretaceous. This deltaic system preserves an extraordinary range of prehistoric life, including fish, crocodilians, pterosaurs, and both carnivorous and herbivorous dinosaurs. Rebbachisaurus remains help paint a fuller picture of this dynamic and competitive environment.
