This unique fossil tooth is from a little known prehistoric reptile from the Triassic Period where few fossils are available for sale. Rutiodon was a member of the Angistorhininae group of phytosaurs and was a large, stout and powerful reptile of the Triassic.
This specimen is a finest quality Rutiodon tooth. Crisp intact serrations and tip are beautifully preserved. Enamel is a stunning warm mix of colors and naturally lustrous. This specimen is part of a very limited offering and was high-graded as one of the best examples of a group from the original collector. NO RESTORATION OR REPAIR. Triassic vertebrate fossils are RARE so this is a definite recommendation for a diversified collector wanting only the best material!
