Hi everyone , I found these fossils while picking through micro matrix and am not sure what they are. Does anyone know the genus/species of these finds? They were found in the Forest Marble formation which is bathonian, Jurassic. 1. Interesting tooth. Fish/shark? 2. Another tiny tooth. I would say croc but it looks way too small. 3. a tiny hybodont 4. enamel? 5. no clue 6. bone?

Hi Everyone! I'm new here but was hoping for some help. My daughter and I were hunting for sea glass yesterday along the coastline in Jamestown, RI (there is a small, hidden location that has worn down glass, pottery, shells and stones) and I found a few treasures that look like they could be shark teeth but I'm not convinced. In your opinion are these worn down fossils or simply rocks that got my hopes up??? Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Guys My son found this neat little fossil on the beach at Charmouth, Dorset, U.K. We had no clue what it was until we had it looked at by an expert at a fossil roadshow. We are considering removing some of the limestone matrix that hides some of the teeth. Do you think we should attempt to remove some of the matrix or is it too risky. There are several Hybodus shark teeth in what appears to be part of the jaw bone. With what I think is a limestone, type matrix covering some of the fossil. None of the teeth can be seen in full. I have some experience using fine hand held electric carving tools. And it would be very interesting to see more of the teeth. What do you think ? Thank you for looking at this for us. Matt

Vert? reptile? amphib? fish? not a vert? SOLVED! - Orthacanthus tooth
hadrosauridae posted a topic in Fossil ID
OK, I need some help on a fossil I uncovered today. Details: north-central OK, Permian (mid to lower), Wellington fm, in a slab of mud/sand stone with claystone inclusions and acid reactive. Lots of plant material and partial tetrapod skull in this large slab. With all that out of the way, I hope someone here can give me an ID on this tiny bugger. Its roughly 4mm across. I'm really at a loss for what this is. The only thing that comes to mind is that it might be a vertebra. The two processes (extension) are curved, giving it the appearance of an elephant skull. You can see there is a fresh break at the centrum. Before it broke, is was nicely rounded and whole. So experts, what your opinion here? Vert? reptile? amphib? fish? not a vert? One last thing. Both this, and the skull frag, have a weird deep red coating on the surface. In a way if annoying as its a little harder to get through than the rest of the matrix, but then again I know when I'm getting very close to bone because of the color.

Is it possible to identify these two teeth? IMHO they could be from the same genus, but I am not sure. Scale in mm (cm). Western Ukraine. (Cretaceus-Neogene)

Westmoreland State Park, VA, USA: Unidentified possible vertebrae, rib(?), and shark tooth
Bowmania posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi all, I had a fairly productive first outing to Westmoreland State Park but I have no idea what any of the fossils I found are. I am happy to provide close-ups of any of the individual fossils, and in addition to the photos here, I posted some to imgur to get around the size restriction here. https://imgur.com/gallery/2uIedQS Thanks for your help!

After spending a great deal of time in the house lately do to COVID and days and days of rain, I took the family on a nice leisurely walk to our favorite hunting spot on this beautiful North Texas day. While the kids wwere off collecting some beautiful Turitellas and oysters, I had only one thing on the mind, shark teeth. Cretalamna seems to dominate this site, however some large Cretodus semiplicatus have been found. A Ptychodus latissimus and 2 Plesiosaur teeth have also been found at the site, filling us with hope on each trip for an incredible find. The trip was a pretty good haul, 11 teeth found in 2 hours. Not bad for a nice family outing. The real highlight though were 2 shark verebrae (about the size of a bottle cap), not large, but still my first ones I've ever found which put me over the moon. They were found just a few feet away from each other, so odds are they belonged to the same critter which is even more incredible! And now it's time for everyone's favorite game, FIND THAT FOSSIL!
