"Toto"
Mosasauridae skull
Possibly Prognathodon anceps.
Maastrichtian (between 72 and 66 million years ago), Beni Smir, Khouribga Basin, Morocco
Length approx. 160 cm, corresponding to an adult specimen of approx. 8 to 9 metres.
Fossil prepared by palaeontologists at Théropodia in 2026.
Provenance: Rock and Mineral Fair, Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines.
A full palaeontological report by Dr Frédéric Lacombat and an osteographic report illustrating a fossil that is 75% complete are available on request. Certificate of export from France.
Conclusion of the palaeontological assessment:
“The specimen consists of an assemblage combining authentic fossil elements from the Maastrichtian phosphates of the Khouribga Basin with modern restorations and 3D prints intended to reconstruct the complete anatomy of the skull. The assembly faithfully reflects the known morphology of large mosasaurids and exhibits satisfactory anatomical consistency. The quality of the preparation and restoration work is high and meets the standards observed in the finest Moroccan specimens currently held in private and institutional collections.”
