05325 - Top Rare 1.96 Inch Fossilized Silicified Pine Cone EQUICALASTROBUS Eocene Sahara Desert Enchodus vertebrae The comparisons with geometric morphometry

The comparisons with geometric morphometry on numerous dentition rests have brought up the presence of at least two distinguishable morphotypes

This tooth was broken in small sector during the initial collecting efforts but all parts were put back together

It has some tiny glued but not restored fractures

North Africa and New Zealand

It simply makes the specimen better preserved in the long term
