Raptor Claw and Toe Bone - Great Preservation

This is a matching claw and toe bone of a small theropod dinosaur, commonly referred to as a raptor. Both pieces are about 1.2 inches long, very well preserved and fit snuggly together. Articulated material like this from the Tegana Formation is very rare.

There are a several species/genus of small theropod dinosaurs (commonly referred to as raptors) in the Tegana Formation including a Dromaeosaur and a Abelisauid like dinosaur. Unfortunately the scientific work has yet been undertaken to describe them mainly due to lack of articulated bone material having been discovered, so an exact genus/species ID is impossible. While teeth of these small raptors are common in the Tegana Formation, claws are rare finds.
