Hi I decided to make a quick guide on how to ID Tyrannosaur teeth from the Belly River Group of Alberta, and the Judith River, Two Medicine Formations. I got this information on a study on how to ID isolated Tyrannosaur teeth from Dr. Angelica Torices. I’ll start off on saying Albertosaurus and Gorgosaurus are extremely alike not much differences in the morphology Daspletosaurus is a little bit Different, the morphology of these two Tyrannosaurs (Gorgosaurus and Daspletosaurus) are probably do to similar evolutionary history Gorgosaurus could of been Albertosaurus ancestor. Now I’ll tell you how to tell these two Tyrannosaur teeth apart (Gorgosaurus and Daspletosaurus). Gorgosaurus has two denticles (serrations) per mm where’s Daspletosaurus does not. Albertosaurus also have two denticles per mm because of Albertosaurus and Gorgosaurus evolutionary history. Also one more thing only with Albertosaurus, juvenile teeth can be different not just in there size but in there morphology too to the Adult teeth where’s Gorgosaurus and Daspletosaurus juvenile and adult teeth always have the same morphology. And thats what I’ve learned about this topic hope it helps, enjoy!!.

Hello, Occasionally, when I am out prospecting for gemstones or minerals I stumble on some unique fossils that I include in my personal collection. Recently, I stumbled on a very large unique find that I believe is a fossil and am requesting assistance/advice on how to handle, if that is the case, for proper recovery if applicable. Location: Glacier WA USA, very close to the Canadian border, in a dried portion of a creek bed - up against the sides walls-banks. located under a tree stump. Approx size: Uncovered Specimen in photographs resembles the size, approx, of a large human torso Materials surrounding the specimens: Many small fossil bones Please note that I only removed enough material (all mixed - nothing attached) to see if it will help with ID and so on. Thank you!

Hi, I recently found one of the books I got not too long a go about dinosaurs of Alberta, and in the book there was a study that shows you can distinguish Tyrannosaur teeth from Alberta and Montana. Here’s the page. The study was done by Dr. Angelica Torices.

Hello all! I have acquired a very nice juvenile tyrannosaurid tooth from the Judith River Formation. I am fully aware that teeth from there are very difficult to be assigned a specie, but I was wondering if it could be narrowed down a little. Last time @Troodon was able to give me awesome info and help. The tooth is a premax tooth and is 1,7cm in length. I have a serration count for both distal and mesial sides: hard to tell for sure but it looks like 3/mm for the distal 4/mm for the mesial Thank you very much for all imput and info Kind regards, Thomas

Hello! I found these two pieces on a beach in Venice, Florida. I believe they may be dugong ribs? The smaller one is about two inches, the larger one is three or four. The larger one is heavy for its size, which I read earlier is a sign of it being a dugong bone, however the smaller one doesn’t seem to be But it seems to have the spongy texture of a fossil bone (I tongue tested it ) if anyone has any idea or can at least tell me if these are actually fossils or not, it would be appreciated! Thank you! The first two are of the smaller one, the second is of the bigger one

Dipleura Dekayi From NY or Parahomalonotus trilobite From Morocco
Kurufossils posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hello, I received this trilobite a long ago that I thought was a Parahomalonotus trilobite when I initially got it, recently someone let me know this maybe actually a Dipleura Dekayi, I definitely have my suspicions this would be the case because the surrounding shale matrix is very unusual for Morocco. What do you guys think?.thumb.jpg.65201464577574d7941edb4a3d3b3420.jpg)
