About the Spinosaurus:

The Spinosaurus aegyptiacus, known as the “spine lizard,” is one of the most fascinating dinosaurs ever discovered. It lived approximately 100 to 125 million years ago during the Aptian stage of the Early Cretaceous period. Spinosaurus is famous for its distinctive sail-like structure on its back and its semi-aquatic lifestyle, making it a unique predator among theropods.

Measuring up to 50-60 feet in length, Spinosaurus is considered one of the largest predatory dinosaurs, surpassing even the Tyrannosaurus rex in size. Its teeth, unlike those of most theropods, were conical and non-serrated, perfectly suited for gripping slippery prey such as fish. Fossils like this one provide a rare glimpse into the life of this extraordinary predator.

Description

Genuine Spinosaurus Dinosaur Tooth Fossil

This 5.5-inch Rare Genuine FULLY ROOTED Spinosaurus Dinosaur Tooth Fossil is an exceptional addition to a fossil collection, natural history display or dinosaur-themed interior. The specimen is identified as Spinosaurus and is presented as a fully rooted fossil tooth, offering strong visual appeal for collectors who value distinctive and identifiable dinosaur material.

Geological Identification and Locality

The fossil originates from the Kem Kem Beds of the Tegana Formation in the Kem Kem Basin, Morocco. It is dated to the Upper Cretaceous, specifically the Cenomanian stage. The Kem Kem Basin is internationally recognised for important Cretaceous vertebrate fossils, making material from this region particularly sought after by collectors interested in North African palaeontology and dinosaur history.

Spinosaurus was a large theropod dinosaur from the Cretaceous Period. As a named dinosaur fossil, a Spinosaurus tooth provides a tangible connection to one of the best-known predatory dinosaur groups. The Cenomanian age places this specimen within an important interval of the Upper Cretaceous, when varied dinosaur and other vertebrate communities occupied the ancient environments represented by deposits in the Kem Kem region.

Collector and Display Appeal

The fully rooted presentation is a notable feature of this specimen and gives the tooth a substantial, complete-looking profile for display. Its substantial 5.5-inch size makes it an eye-catching centrepiece for a fossil cabinet, study, office, museum-style collection or educational display. It may also appeal to collectors specialising in dinosaur teeth, theropod fossils, Spinosaurus material, Moroccan fossils or Upper Cretaceous specimens.

The tooth can be displayed as a standalone natural-history object or incorporated into a broader collection featuring fossils from the Cenomanian, the Tegana Formation and the Kem Kem Basin. Its combination of named dinosaur identification, geological context and fully rooted presentation makes it suitable for both established collectors and enthusiasts beginning a focused dinosaur fossil collection.
