So, I'm curious. Is Deinosuchus rugosus still considered a species? Or is it now Deinosuchus schwimmeri? And the same for D. hatcheri and D. riograndensis. Also, how many species of deinosuchus are currently accepted? As far as I know, it is only D. hatcheri/riograndensis and D. rugosus/schwimmeri, with the former living in Laramidia and the latter living in Appalachia. One more question, I heard that there was D. rugosus/schwimmeri material found in a miocene deposit, is that true?

Howdy all! I recently bought this tooth from the Bladen formation of North Carolina. It was described as Deinosuchus rugosus as I'm pretty sure that's what it is, but I need a second opinion. Regardless, I'm still so excited to finally have some material from this formation!

Really interested in this specimen. Found in Barbour County, Alabama. Described as being Deinosuchus rugosus. Is that accurate?

North Carolina Deinosuchus rugosus armored plate fragment (osteoderm) and some other finds from last week
fossil_lover_2277 posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
Deinosuchus rugosus (I think it's technically D. schwimmeri now) armored plate fragment (osteoderm) I found yesterday in North Carolina's Black Creek group. The whole thing would've likely been around 5"+ in diameter and ~1-1.5" thick. This thing was a beast when it was alive. Also found some Xiphactinus vetus teeth, a tiny but complete Ischyrhiza mira rostral "tooth", my biggest ever complete Scapanorhynchus texanus (this one looks odd in the pic because it curves up so sharply and leans back cause of the weight) and Cretolamna appendicula teeth, and a lot of mosasaur and croc teeth I have as indeterminate IDs. Found a fair amount of other neat stuff too, but these were definitely some of the highlights.

Large mosasaur or Deinosuchus rugosus tooth from North Carolina
fossil_lover_2277 posted a topic in Fossil ID
I found this tooth earlier today in the Cretaceous Black Creek group of eastern North Carolina. It’s extremely worn, but it’s definitely a tooth (update: okay maybe not ), either mosasaur or Deinosuchus rugosus (due to its size). I’m leaning towards mosasaur due to the elliptical shape of its base. Does anyone know which it is? And if it’s mosasaur, what possible genus or species it might belong to? I’m curious to see what the tooth looked like before it got so beat up. Thanks!
