Sanajeh indicus micro Computed Tomography (CT) data
User Collection
- Creator:
- Wilson Mantilla, Jeffrey A.
- Description:
- This collection includes computed tomography (CT) scans of the cranial remains of Sanajeh indicus, a Late Cretaceous snake from Gujarat, India. In addition to the holotype (described by Wilson et al., 2010), a referred specimen (Zaher et al., 2022) has been collected from Dholi Dungri. The holotype includes a 'cranial block' (GSI/GC/2903) and the referred specimen also includes a partial skull (GSI/GC/DD4). Both holotypic and referred specimens are housed in Geological Survey of India Palaeontology Division, Central Region in Nagpur, India. For assistance with access, please contact Dhananjay Mohabey ( dinomohabey@yahoo.com) or Bandana Samant ( bandanabhu@gmail.com). Casts of selected elements of Sanajeh indicus are available at the University of Michigan Museum of Paleontology.
