Anhanguera Pterosaur Tooth .71 Inches

Here is a distinctive tooth of Anhanguera sp. from the Cretaceous Tegana Formation of Morocco. This tooth is somewhat curved and has wonderful, brick red color. The enamel of the tooth is intact and very well preserved. And there is almost little wear to the tip of the tooth. This is a very fine, specimen of a tooth from an extinct Pterosaur.

Anhanguera was not a "true" dinosaur, but rather a pterosaur (flying reptile). It was one of the larger pterosaurs of the Cretaceous period with a maximum wing span of about 15 feet. It primarily ate fish, which used its sharp, needle-like teeth to hold onto.
