Description

Late Jurassic (Bathonian)

Isalo Formation

Majunga, Madagascar

Very fine 0.65 inch rooted tooth (0.25 inch crown).

Dinosaur, Sauropod

Bothriospondylus is a lesser-known genus of sauropod to the general public but dinosaur collectors have been familiar with it for years.

Sometimes it’s tough to find a decent sauropod tooth on the market and finding a cheap one is almost impossible.  Teeth referred to B. madagascarensis have been coming up for sale sporadically.  Here’s a nice specimen with some wear but it also has a decent amount of root.
