Name:
Pterosaur Wing Claw Sheath
Age: Cretaceous
Formation: Tegana Formation
Location: Ksares-es-Souk, Morocco
Size: Claw is almost 2 inches long
This very rare Pterosaur claw is the actual keratin sheath, not the traditional internal core that is seen on reptile toes and hands. Detail and surface texture is superb. Many ridges and valleys are evident, plus a very sharp tip, obviously used for holding and grasping. The entire claw is relatively is hollow, which is extremely unusual. This is a very fine example of a flying reptile claw.
A Certificate of Authenticity from EXTINCTIONS is included with this specimen.
