Elosuchus Cherifiensis Jaw 197mm
£682.00 GBP
A very interesting partial jaw measuring 197mm, illustrating the morphology of the alveoli, the tooth placement sockets, the largest of which is just slightly larger than 12mm diameter. The bone tissue exhibits the small holes which are nerve ending points of the sensory receptors which made the crocodilians such efficient predators in the water, their domain which from early beginnings of the late Cretaceous period the line of crocodyloidea evolved. The jaw section has been cleaned and conserved in the U.K., it has suffered a break in the excavation. The two pieces of the jaw have been reaffixed. Please view all the clear illustrations above. As the ténéré rarely gives up its prehistoric treasures, here is an opportunity to gain a fossil crocodile element which is scientifically valuable as a study specimen. We have attributed this partial jaw section to the genus Elosuchus cherifiensis through our research of the gharial...

Mosasaurus Prognathodon Jaw 370mm
£3,442.00 GBP
A wonderful double-sided 3D partial Prognathodon giganteus mosasaur jaw exhibiting complete articulated teeth on both sides showcasing great preservation to the dentin-enamel whilst the stock-root is stable throughout the jaw mandibles. The Cretaceous period Mosasauroidea was featured in Jurassic World - the Mosasaurs were a group of perfectly developed marine reptiles and these predators adorned huge double-hinged jaws with an artillery of teeth. Armed with powerful flippers and streamlined bodies, it was thought Mosasaurs undulated their bodies side to side similar to snakes, however, recent research leads to theorising their bodies remained steady whilst their tail provided power through the ocean.. Aigialosaurs is a more ancient group of aquatic lizards. Mosasaurs breathed air, gave birth to live young and grew from around 3 feet; Dallasaurus turneri, the smallest Mosasaur to 50 feet in length; Mosasaurus hoffmannii, being the largest. The Mosasaurs reigned for around 20 million years before the mass extinction which ended the existence of the dinosaurs some 65,000,000...




























































Elosuchus Cherifiensis Jaw 2.2ft
£5,292.00 GBP
A wonderful example of the Archosaur Elosuchus displaying 24 reseated teeth discovered in the Cretaceous fossil layers of De Ksar-es-Souk fossil beds in Morocco. The overall conditions of the jaw is stable for a study, an excellent state of preservation and conserved to a high standard. An exceedingly important crocodilian rostral jaw section for exceptional three-dimensional study, now elevated on a custom-tailored display stand to seat the jaw securely in place while maximising the aesthetic appeal, creating a dramatic statement exhibit for that show-stopping space.

Dyrosaurus Crocodile Vertebrae 1.4ft
£5,992.00 GBP
A superb example of Dyrosaurus crocodile vertebrae measuring 1.4ft, a partial section with a gastrolith stone inclusion. Presented in our classic in-house designed bronze mount. Another wonderful example of unique fossil discovery, this rare museum standard specimen, discovered in Oulad Abdoun Basin, Morocco, North Africa. Dyrosaurus is a genus of extinct crocodylomorph that lived from the upper Cretaceous to the Eocene period, surviving the K-Pg extinction event. Dyrosaurus are linked to pholidosaurids as a clade and are defined as slender-snouted, fish-eating specialists adapted to near-shore marine habitats. The Dyrosauridae are a group of mostly marine, long-jawed, crocodile-like quadrupeds up to 6 metres long. The fossilised vertebrae have been cleaned away from the fossil bed matrix and preserved in preparatory chemicals to conserve each bone. This work was carried partially in Morocco and completed in the UK lab, along with our bronze mount. The bone tissue is fragile and requires careful...










Dyrosaurus Crocodile Skull 3.9ft
£6,992.00 GBP
RRP
£7,892.00 GBP
A highly important Dyrosaurus gharial crocodile skull measuring 3.9ft, displaying all the reptile attributes along with the original fossil teeth in original alveoli positions, in both the upper maxilla and lower mandible. It is often during the fossilisation process that the teeth are lost, damaged or severely weathered out of the jaws of vertebrates. This large specimen evokes the predatory nature of these vertebrates from the Cretaceous period dating back 65,000,000 - 70,000,000 years. With very little malformation, which is a common feature of the material from this location, the superb and scientifically interesting crocodilian fossil skull evokes a fearsome image from its prehistorical past. The burlap jacket is now wrapped around the fossil block when excavated in the field, which aids transportation from the fossil bed, and also now keeps the fossil skull in a stable and safe environment. The specimen has been stabilised in the field when lifted from the bed,...


























Mosasaurus Beaugei Jaw 3.9ft
£6,992.00 GBP
Beaugei arambourg mosasaurus lower mandible jaw measuring 3.9ft. The Mosasaurs were a group of perfectly developed marine predators, resembling a crocodilian and lizard form, with gigantic double-hinged jaws, with artillery of large teeth, fully equipped to tackle the once prehistoric and deadly oceans. Yet to be proven however it is believed the Mosasaurus family were able to unhinge their jaws for a more precise attack and with a much deadlier force At first, it was thought that Mosasaurs used their bodies like snakes or eels when swimming, in an undulating side to side movement. However, the most recent research leads experts to theorise the Mosasuaurus species anatomy remained quite still whilst their large tail with tremendous strength and power provided the locomotion to propelled them forward. Part of a more ancient group of aquatic lizards, the aigialosaurs group. Mosasaurs breathed air, gave birth to live young and grew from around...
