Hi i’m Wondering if this this would be the shape of some sort of dinosaur footprint?
-
Hey all, I found one tooth that’s certainly from a hadrosaur a while back, and I found this other one sitting right beside it but it’s pretty funky looking. Hoping you could tell me if it’s a hadrosaur tooth as well or just a suspicious rock. (Bottom one in the pic with the measuring tape) Thanks!

Two more verts that I am interested in getting. But, figured I would check before commiting. First one is described as a Pachycephalosaurus tail vert, but looking online, it seems pretty difficult to tell these from other small dinos like Thescelosaurus. So, any thoughts would be great. It is 2.6 cm long and described as being from Late Cretaceous, Lance Creek Formation, Niobrara County, Wyoming. Second is just described as dinosaur vertebrae. Possibly Dacentrurus (which is a type of stegosaur apparently) From Kimmeridge Clay, Dorset. It is 10cm by 9cm by 4.5 cm. Seller says he confident it is a dinosaur and not a plesiosaur because of the open, large bone cells. Hope these look good, Pachycephalosaurus is, along with Baryonyx, my favorite dinosaur. Thanks as always.

juvenile triceratops pelvic bone???
Compy posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello again, while looking for more preserved dinosaurian remains I found this: It is from a bequest/inheritance so little is known by the family selling it except that it was bought at an auction in the US and properly declared to customs. It was told to be a pelvic bone of a juvenile triceratops. It measures roughly length: 25cm, width: 18cm, width: 8 cm and the weight is roundabout 2.5 kg. If it is a real pelvic bone to me it looks very worn or in a bad shape. What puzzles me is the black part of rock you can see in the bottom right corner of some pictures... On the other hand it is the first complete/intact pelvic bone I was able to find... What is your opinion on this piece? Is it real or a concretion? Is it a pelvic bone and to which species can (if even possible given the poor information) it be narrowed down? Is it worth to be collected? Thanks in advance!

Hello, I know assorted bones can be difficult, but I'm wondering if anyone can recognise any of these mixed bones? Labelled as Kem Kem Dinosaur, possibly Spinosaurus. Anyone has any idea. Whether bone, kem kem, dinosaur or spino, that would be much appreciated. Cheers

Found these in Edmonton in a creek below a coal seam. Unsure if this was actually the KT line. I know Edmontosaur specimens have been found nearby. Any information would be helpful, thank you!

I'm looking for a little help identifying this bone from the Kem Kem Beds. It looks to part of a vertebra - it's almost 6 inches long so I immediately thought that narrows it down to being a partial Spinosaurid or Charcharodontosaurus vertebra. After spending ages looking through previous post and searching for detailed pictures of vertebrae, I came to the conclusion it belongs to a Spinosaurid (Spinosaurus or Sigilmassasaurus) because the shape just looks wrong for Carch (although there isn't much to go off for Carch vertebrae). Just looking for some input as to whether I'm correct as I know some members are far more familiar with Kem Kem bones. Would you say this looks like a partial Spino vertebra or is it far too fragmentary to say?

From the album: Judith River fm. Fossil Finds
Probably my best find from that trip, this is so far the largest self found theropod tooth in my collection. It either belongs to Gorgosaurus or Daspletosaurus, though it is difficult to determine. Tyrannosauridae indet. (Either Gorgosaurus, Daspletosaurus or another taxon). Judith River fm.-

One of my favorite finds from my trip to Montana last summer, a foot claw from an ornithomimid. Probably not identifiable beyond the family level. Ornithomimdae sp. Judith River fm. -
Dinosaur embryo with dinosaur inside?
Dino1 posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hey guys, I saw this listed as a dinosaur inside an egg with embryo. I have never seen a dinosaur egg with a dinosaur still inside before. Any thoughts on it? It was found in Arizona I think and seller claims that this could be a never discovered before dinosaur.

I saw this pair for sale, before buying, I figured I'd check if they are dino as listed rather than crocodile. If anyone could take a look, that would be great. Described as two caudal verts, larger one repaired. From Kem Kem Basin. They are small, the cube pictured is 1cm.

Hey guys, I saw this listed as a oviraptor egg, seller claims to have taken it to a museum to have it examined. This looks a little different from other oviraptor eggs I have seen and I don’t really see signs of embryo. I would appreciate any input on it. It was found in Texas

Small unidentified theropod tooth from Morrison Formation, Wyoming
Sauroniops posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hello there. I recently received a small theropod tooth from the Morrison Formation, without any ID. Part of the tip is missing/worn out. At its longest dimension, the tooth measures 1,1 cm. The serration count (Both mesial and dermal) are 6-7 serrations per mm, and about 18-19 per 3 mm. Anyone who's got a good guess, feel welcome to drop a comment here, cause I have no clue if this is a baby Allosaurus, or a small Marshosaurus, Ornitholestes, Coelurus or something completely different.- 11 replies

Possible rib fragment of Einiosaurus?
Compy posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Good evening, I have the possibility to buy these fragments of a rib of Einiosaurus. Because I am not yet that familiar with dinosaur bones: -are they really rib fragments? -is it possible to attribute these to Einiosaurus? They are said to be from the Two Medicine Formation, Montana.

Found this along the Cape Fear River Basin in Bladen County, North Carolina. I was hunting petrified wood and stumbled across this fossil that resembles a skull. Could someone possibly help me to identify it?

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone knows where I could get hell creek matrix? If someone knows of a source, please pm me. Preferably macro but either would be good. Please pm me if you know someone. tia.

Hey all, I found some new fossils on a surface collecting expedition last weekend near Hays, Alberta. Not sure what level of identification can be done for these because of how incomplete they are but anything helps. The first bone gets really thin near the top, not really sure what type of bone it might be. Part of an ilium maybe? Never found anything like it before. Had to glue it back together. Second one is a vertebra centrum I found not far from the first bone. Could belong to the same animal.

Fossil Hunting From The Safety Of Your Home
Mioplosus_Lover24 posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
With the current pandemic I decided now was as good of a time as any to get some matrix from the Aguja Formation with the help of PaleoTex! This turned out to be a great decision as I was extremely lucky, finding about basically everything I wanted to, and more in only 5 pounds of matrix! I'll be sure to post pictures but I got numerous amia and gar teeth, along with atleast 36 gar scales. Tons of Crocodile teeth including a large Deinosuchus tooth. Several shark teeth and a partial hybodus spine, also several brackish water pycnodontid teeth and tooth pallets. 4 fish or salamander jaws with teeth. Regarding dinosaur teeth I got 17 Hadrosaur teeth, including 2 partially rooted. A partial Ankylosaurus tooth. 4 Therapod teeth including a perfect Saurornitholestes tooth and a Premax. My favorite find however was the Paronychodon tooth I found! I'll be posting that picture first! Highly recommend this matrix, but I was also told that most people don't find all this stuff, so keep that in mind aswell. Stay safe! Happy hunting! (ID's for these specimens done by lab manager)

I’m scratching my head about this one, found it at the beach. Anyone have any idea?

Milk river find in Montana. Is the little one a piece of a jaw bone (an inch long)? No clue on the larger - thought they maybe the end of a long bone but there’s really not much of a broken base to it.

Labelled as possible polacanthus or young iguanodon but doesnt resemble the polacanthus cast I have. Described as "misshapen." Not the best photos, I know. Thanks

HI, I purchased this Unidentified theropod tooth a few years ago from a seller that sold it as a "Raptor" tooth. It is from the Kem Kem beds from Morocco, during the late Cretaceous Period. It is 1.3 Centimetres (1/2 inch) long. The seller also mentioned that it may likely be from an Abelisaurid. I think that it is most likely an Abelisaurid tooth and I am looking forward to updating it's identification tag in my collection. Yet I need to be certain that I am correctly identifying this tooth. What are your thoughts about what this tooth could be? I apologize if I spelled/addressed the names incorrectly and I would thank you for the correction. Feel free to ask for better quality pictures if you need any.
