Taxon: Phylum Chordata, Subphylum Vertebrata, Class Reptilia
Locality: Eagle County, CO
Age: Jurassic
Rock unit: Morrison Formation
Collector: W. Itano

I stumbled across this bone, probably a rib of a dinosaur. I reported its location to the Bureau of Land Management office in Glenwood Springs and suggested that they collect it, since I could not legally do so. The length is 13 cm. Apparently they did collect it, because it is no longer at the location where I found it.
