  1. I’m trying to get better at identification so I labeled the pieces with what I think they are but some I can’t figure out. I would love some guidance if anyone has any input! Thanks Fernandina Beach Amelia Island Florida USA

    Ankylosaur scute/osteoderm

    Hello does this look like ankylosaur armor? Seller says it's from Hell Creek @jpc @Dino Dad 81 @hadrosauridae

    Ankylosaur Osteoderm

    Discovered in 2023 in northwestern New Mexico, I found what is believed to be an ankylosaur-type osteoderm. Compared to many other fossils of that type, it is rather small and thin, with a diameter of 88mm X 75mm, and measures 21mm thick from the flat basal surface to its peak on the opposite side. The thickness of the edge is 8mm. The basal surface is remarkable in that it is essentially intact, and displays an intricate web of structural fibers. These photos were referred to a prominent paleontologist in Switzerland who believed the osteoderm may be from an ankylosaurus in the family Ankylosauridae. A local paleontologist was also notified of the find. Any observations or additional information on this osteoderm is invited.

    Ankylosaurid scute ID

    Hello there, Today an ankylosaurid scute was in my mail Information from seller: Euoplocephalos tutus Cretaceous Judith river formation Alberta, Canada One question about this: is Judith River fm the correct name if it is from Alberta? Isn't it Oldman Fm, or Dinosaur Park Fm then (territories of the Judith River group in Canada)? Based on the information I found online.. in these two formations in Canada the following ankylosaurids were found: Oldman fm: Scolosaurus Dinosaur Park fm: Anodontosaurus, Dyoplosaurus, Edmontonia, Euoplocephalus, Panoplosaurus, Platypelta, Scolosaurus I will ask the seller again for the exact location but I also wanted to ask some experts here.. Thank you in advance. Best regards Max

    Ankylosaurus scute/partial club?

    Sell says this is either a scute or partial club of Ankylosaurus. It's from the Hell Creek Formation in South Dakota. Seller says it was found with other scutes. Any way to ID this?
  7. Hello everyone, this specimen has been advertised as a phytosaur scute from the Triassic of Northeastern Arizona. I'm curious if this piece is genuine and unmodified as it is relatively cheap. I'm also wondering if it isn't metoposaur scute as I've not seen a phytosaur scute like this. As always, any help is appreciate, thank you.
  8. Bought these in a lot of online auction site, guy said he found them in New York. Any help identifying them is greatly appreciated, thank you!
  9. Thanks in advance for your help! Post Oak Creek, Sherman, Texas. Turtle scute or part of vertebra?
  10. Found this for sale somewhere, they are advertising it as a gar scale, but I don't think it is, although I could definitely be wrong. My first thought was maybe a scute of a crocodile, but I think that is also not it. Any ideas/ Thank you so much everyone in advance!

    3 Crocodilian/Borealsuchus Scute ID

    I collected these 3 crocodilian scutes from the bank of the Pee Dee river recently. They come from a lag deposit at the base of the PeeDee formation that immediately overlies the Donoho Creek formation. This lag deposit would be in the range of 65-75 mya, towards the end of the Cretaceous. I am curious about the noticeable differences in the 3 scutes and wonder what they came from. Borealsuchus and other crocodilians are known from this locality, and in my opinion the 2 with the larger holes look like borealsuchus more than anything else I've seen. Would love any input from people more knowledgable than me!

    ID help, please and thanks!

    Almost everything was found yesterday at Peace River (FL). I’m still new to fossil hunting. I do my research but still need help - there’s a lot to learn. TIA for anyone who takes the time to let me know what I’ve got here! In order, I think I have: -Deer ankle bone -Scapula? Turtle shell? -Glyptodont scutes -Horse/camel incisor? -Manatee/dugong tooth? -Shells (I know nothing about these but love these two-wanted to share) -Gator/plant? Pattern is only on one side -Deer tooth? -Camel/deer tooth? -Stumped - too many teeth look too similar…tapir? -Recent shark tooth finds (contents of the final picture were found on land in Sarasota county and not at the river) I think that’s more than enough for now I have quite a few horse/bison/camel/llama/etc teeth that I also need help differentiating, but I want to try a little more before asking for help. Any good charts/info that help point out differences in these would be greatly appreciated! Adding some pics of recent shark tooth finds just for the fun of sharing. If you see anything special (rare/pathos/etc) that I need to know about, please let me know! Again, thanks in advance for all the help! Any ideas appreciated - if better pics/measurements are needed, just ask
  14. Hi! I've recently collected a number of osteoderm fragments and I'm trying to identify what organism (s) they came from. These were all collected from Holden Beach, NC USA. Holden has recently had the beach "renourished" which stirred up a lot of specimens from the Peedee formation. I think the majority of these are from a soft shelled turtle, but I'm very novice

    Venice Beach, Florida Fossil ID

    Hi all, I found this possible osteoderm on Venice Beach last month. What do you guys think?
  16. Hello everyone I went on a commercial dino dig tour Summer 2022 of the Hell Creek formation in the Butte County, South Dakota area and found lots of bones and spitter teeth and had a great time. These two were in my unknown/unidentifiable pile and I've recently done some cleaning/prep to them and was requesting some help with possible IDs. The first item (on the left in most of the images) looks like a broken rooted ceratopsian/triceratops tooth to me with ridges and enamel showing. The second item (on the right in most of the images) looks a little like a scute with a raised round/circular area in the center and a lot of what looks like scratch marks on the opposite surface. I'm a newbie to the Hell Creek and these guesses may be off. Let me know if you would like any additional angles or detail for help with the ID. Thanks a bunch for looking

    Need Scute identification

    Found on Myrtle Beach, January 2023. I haven't found many scutes and I can't find anything on the Internet to help with this one. Any idea what this one comes from? Thanks! Paula

    Ankylosaurus skull piece and scute?

    I ended up buying this piece, and probably should have posted it here before i did that.. but here are two fossils listed as Ankylosaurus skull piece and scute. Can anyone here give their opinion on it? I don't have county, but it's from the hell creek formation, south Dakota. The largest piece is 10 cm long. @Troodon

    Various Items from Hanna Park - Jacksonville, FL

    Hello everyone! I took my daughter and 6 year old granddaughter on a “girls only road-trip” to Hanna Park in Jacksonville, Florida for some relaxation time. We did a lot of beach combing and I found some great fossils. I’ve been able to identify the majority of my haul, but need some ID assistance with a few remaining items. I have a some potential dermal denticles and scutes, and a piece of unknown bone. The bone is is very thin, less than 3 mm. I also have two TINY teeth; one may be a barracuda. I believe the other may be a shark but I haven’t been able to link it to a species. As always, any assistance is greatly appreciated! Thank you

    Possible Scute?

    Found in the peace river. Is this a glypt scute? Almost looks sandstone but not sure if fossils end up being sandstone. Any ideas?
  21. I've been trying to do some research about actual gator scutes not ostoderms that we call scutes. I know that Dino skin can be found so can croc also? Would love to hear about this subject and see some great photos if possible too please!

    Shark teeth and scute

    Sometime last week I went to a creek in Southeast Alabama to find shark teeth. I got thirty nine teeth and what I believe is a partial glyptodon scute. I believe that the majority are sandtiger teeth (but from YouTube and online images could be goblin) and a few mackerel shark teeth. I also got my first tiger shark tooth from this site. I was hoping someone here could help identify the scute and supposed sandtiger teeth.
