Edmontonia Tooth Fossil

Species: Nodosaurid indet* Age: Late Cretaceous (66 mya) Location: Brusett, MT Formation: Hell Creek Size: 35/64” x 55/128” x 29/128” Weight: 0.88 g Item #A132 This Edmontonia tooth is in near-perfect condition, displaying prominent fluting. The four outer cusps of the tooth are displayed in great detail, while the central tooth cusps show wear from feeding. While the Edmontonia might not be the most well known dinosaur this particular species had a unique set of teeth that display just how specialized herbivorous dinosaurs were. The flutes in the teeth of the Edmontonia were specifically designed cut and mash the plants it would feed on. This Edmontia tooth is a great representation of the specialized traits dinosaurs had when they roamed the earth. No restoration or repair is necessary to this fossil. The teeth of Edmontonia are virtually indistinguishable from Denversaurus, and this specimen was found independently of any other identifiable material. Species Description: Edmontonia
