O

ne of the most  fascinating species of dinosaur that ever walked the Earth - Psittacosaur!

Wielding a sharp parrot like beak, powerful jaws and on either side of the head - cheek horns, they were highly successful; the most abundant dinosaur of the time!

A self sharpening beak enabled the toughest vegetation to be stripped with ease - a tool that could inflict serious injury when needed, slicing through flesh and possibly bone.

Through discoveries of highly preserved skeletons, we can offer specimens of such completeness  unequalled amongst other species. 

This spectacular Psittacosaur dinosaur, 23" (58.5cm) in length was prepared by ourselves in the UK.

This is a genuine Psittacosaur dinosaur fossil.

Dating to the Cretaceous, the dinosaur was excavated in the Jiufotang Formation, Meileyingenzi,  Liaoning Province, N.E. China.

Now scientists have  begun to piece together the amazing discoveries of recent times - from the many species of the Psittacosaur Family, the extraordinary numbers of young produced each mating season, their complex social structure to incredible excavations of specimens with preserved skin and even 8" long quill like structures!   T

his excellent  Psittacosaur has been prepared by TRIASSICA, specialists in the species, guaranteeing its authenticity!

The skull is a genuine fossilized true Psittacosaur dinosaur skull with jugal (cheek) horns, BEAK.

PSITTACOSAUR SKULLS

Commonly, Psittacosaur skulls which have been prepared in China, are made from an oblong piece of rock, with bone glued onto the rock into the form of a skull.

Frequently, such 'skulls' are fabricated from resin, matrix & glue, with a minor amount of bone - if the skull looks perfectly symmetric, lacking in fine detail - it may be a fabrication.

We prepare the skulls of our Psittacosaurs here in the UK in our studio with 3D stereo microscopy, surgical scalpels, dental tools - they are NOT fabricated, miscellaneous bits of bone glued to rock - beware when purchasing from non specialist dealers and especially specimens offered direct from China - the skull may NOT be what it appears!

We are specialists in Psittacosaur dinosaurs - now almost exclusively dealing in Psittacosaurs as apart from general fossils - our research is primarily Psittacosaur dinosaur brain case excavation and skull preparation.   

Almost all Psittacosaurs for commercial sale are offered with ribs consisting of a few bone fragments.

There are no artificial elements - this is an all real fossilized dinosaur - there is no resin or any other artificial components!

Supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity - we guarantee the genuiness of this dinosaur!

This really is a genuine dinosaur - not a replica, model, not a cast - not made of plastic, resin, plaster - it is a real fossilized DINOSAUR!

The variant coloration, with darker areas is due to the outer bone layer (periosteum) not having preserved & does NOT represent fabricated parts.

Indeed every bone exhibits a proliferation of multiple fractures caused by the pressure of overlying matrix - even the tiny spinous processes, claws etc have such fracturing & lamellar bone exposure - CONCLUSIVE that this fossil is genuine.

This all real fossil must NOT be confused with overseas prepared fabrications made of resin, crushed bone & glue or similar.

Now this real dinosaur can be yours - one of a select few worldwide to own a dinosaur!

And the price for such an incredible, real dinosaur - not as much as you may expect?
