1.11" Raptor (Saurornitolestes?) Caudal Vert - Texas

This is a 1.11" long caudal (tail) vertebrae of a small theropod dinosaur (raptor) from the Aguja Formation of West Texas. It possibly could belong to Saurornitolestes, but so collecting and work has been done on this formation it's a best guess. Really nice preservation on this specimen though.

This specimen was collected within the past year on private deeded property in Brewster County, Texas. You won't see any other dinosaur material from the Aguja & Javelina Formations for sale because nearly all of the formation lies the borders of a national park or in Mexico which can not be collected. One of our partners was lucky enough to purchase several hundred acres of ranch land in Texas containing a good exposure of these formations and we will be offering more material from the locality in the future.
