.9" Fossil Crocodile Ungual (Claw) Bone - Aguja Formation, Texas
This is a .9" wide fossil unidentified crocodile ungual (claw) bone from the Aguja Formation, Brewster County, Texas. It is in excellent condition. This is the bone core of the claw. In life it would have been covered by a keratin sheath that formed the functional claw. The Aguja Formation has a number of undescribed crocodylimorphs and one bone section is often, not enough to identify one.
This specimen was collected within the past year on private deeded property in Brewster County, Texas. You won't see any other dinosaur material from the Aguja and Javelina Formations for sale because nearly all of the formations lie within the boundaries of Big Bend National Park, where fossils may not be collected, or in Mexico, where fossils cannot be commercially traded. One of our partners was lucky enough to purchase several hundred acres of ranch land in Texas containing a good exposure of these formations, and we will be offering more material from the locality in the future.
