Dinosaur tooth Rebbachisaurus

Product no.: SZBR 8

This tooth of the sauropod Rebbachisaurus garasbae (LAVOCAT 1954) comes from the Cretaceous 
(Albian - Cenomanian) of Taouz, Kem Kem Basin, Morocco. This fossil is approximately 100 
million years old.

The specimen was found in the red sandstone layers of the Ifezouane and Aoufous Formations. 
Typical of Rebbachisaurus garasbae is the obliquely worn tip of the tooth, caused by the 
herbivore's chewing movements.

Rebbachisaurus belongs to the superfamily Diplodocoide. Like all members of its group, 
it was a large, quadrupedal herbivore with a long neck and long tail. Its length is estimated 
at 20 meters. Rebbachisaurus probably reached a weight of approximately 10 to 20 tons. Unusual 
are the vertebral processes on the back, which formed a sail approximately 1.5 meters high, 
similar to that of Spinosaurus.

The tooth is quite large and preserved from root to tip. It measures approximately 5.5 cm.
The exhibit comes in a plastic container.

The fossil was broken and professionally glued – no further manipulation!
