Real moroccan Spinosaurus toe bones ?


Brevicollis

Recommended Posts

Hello, I saw these moroccan Spinosaurus toe bones on auction today and wondered If they are real or not. They look pretty good and real, but before I should bid on them, I better have it confirmed or debunked.

Kemkem beds only. But I have a toe bone of Spinosaurus thats even smaller than that, so probably from a juvenile.

possible, the digits of Spinosaurs are very different, depending on there position. Looks like the Position ph IV, digit 3 or 4

distal end looks bit restored

Not much is known from the Kem Kem beds, what also makes it interesting in a way. 

Its definitely a real toe bone , and a fairly good one , just missing a bit of bone on the right lower side looking at photo nr4

Its not that small. Could be a spinosaurid / Sigilmassasaurus aff.
