This  Myliobatis dixoni mouth plate fossil fragment originates from Morocco and dates to the Paleocene period. Myliobatis, commonly known as the eagle ray, possessed broad crushing tooth plates used to feed on hard-shelled prey such as mollusks and crustaceans.

The fossil displays the characteristic crushing surface typical of eagle ray dentition. Mouth plates of Myliobatis dixoni are popular among collectors due to their distinctive appearance.
