Extremely Nice, 4.2" Hadrosaur Vertebrae - Texas

This
Artist reconstruction of Kritosaurus
Artist reconstruction of Kritosaurus
is an extremely well preserved caudal vertebrae from a large Hadrosaur (duck-billed dinosaur). It was collected from the Aguja Formation of Texas. It's likely from Kritosaurus navajovius, but little collecting and research has been done on the formation, so it's tough to put a definitive ID on it. The formation is the equivalent of the Judith River Formation in the Northern US/Canada.

It's 4.2" tall and the preservation is phenomenal with no erosion and the process is intact. There are only a couple of repairs to the process, no real restoration. It comes with a custom made metal display stand to show it off. Don't pass this one up, as there is very little Cretaceous dinosaur material out there.

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 & Javelina Formations for sale because nearly all of the formation lies the borders of a national park or in Mexico which can not be collected. 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.
