CAMPTOSAURUS DISPAR – FOSSIL TAIL VERTEBRA For sale: an authentic fossil tail vertebra (caudal vertebra), attributed to Camptosaurus dispar, a herbivorous ornithopod dinosaur from the Late Jurassic of North America. Camptosaurus dispar was a medium-sized herbivorous dinosaur that lived about 150 million years ago during the Late Jurassic. It inhabited the ancient floodplains and forests of today’s western United States, alongside well-known dinosaurs such as Allosaurus, Stegosaurus and Diplodocus. SPECIMEN INFORMATION • Species: Camptosaurus dispar • Type: Caudal vertebra (tail vertebra) • Formation: Morrison Formation • Locality: Big Horn Basin, Wyoming, USA • Period: Late Jurassic • Age: About 150 million years The specimen consists of a tail vertebra that was part of the tail vertebral column of the dinosaur. Caudal vertebrae form an important component of the skeleton and provide interesting information about the anatomy and structure of Camptosaurus’ long, muscular tail. The Morrison Formation is one of the best-known dinosaur-bearing geological formations in the world and has yielded an exceptional diversity of Late Jurassic dinosaurs from the western North America. A SPECIAL ITEM FOR COLLECTORS Fossil vertebrae are particularly interesting items for collectors because they represent actual skeletal material and form a direct link to the anatomy of extinct dinosaurs. This specimen would be an excellent addition to a collection of Jurassic dinosaurs, ornithopods, vertebrate fossils, or Morrison Formation material. INFORMATION CARD INCLUDED The fossil is supplied with a professional information card, as shown in the photos. The card contains the scientific name, geological period, formation and locality of the specimen. A fascinating piece of natural history from the Late Jurassic, originating from the famous Morrison Formation of Wyoming, USA. Locality: Big Horn Basin, Wyoming, USA Formation: Morrison Formation Age: Late Jurassic Best regards, @Kaya_Fossils
