Juvenile Bothriospondylus madagascariensis with root
Top quality fully rooted tooth of a Bothriospondylus madagascariensis. This tooth most probably belonged to a juvenile animal and is really amazing. Never before I have seen a tooth with a root complete till the very tip. The Bothriospondylus madagascariensis is one of the 3 Sauropods that lived in what now is Madagascar during the middle Jurassic. Rarely such teeth are found with their root intact.
