I know its small but I found this tooth a while back and had forgotten about it so while looking through my trips smaller teeth I found 3 Carcharoides totuserratus which i didn’t know were rare until watching one of blackriverfossils videos. So I was wondering what kind of tooth this is and if anything rare? The last photo is the Carcharoides totuserratus I was talking about.

I just got a package today of fossils from Morocco. Most were just your common mosasaur and otodus teeth, etc. But this one just doesn't look right. Can someone please help me identify it? It looks like a rather wide Otodus tooth but has a prominent ridge running down the middle. It also has a very large root and the tooth sits on quite an angle from the root. Appreciate any help. It is 2 1/2 cm across at the root.

Hi all, For a few months now, I occasionally go searching for shark/ray teeth in an old industrial area in Aruba. I found hundreds of smaller shark teeth (probably carcharhinus) and a handful of very cool & much larger teeth (likely otodus angustidens). This morning, I went walking the dogs there and stumbled upon a chunk of a much larger tooth! Could it be the megalodon? it could be a larger specimen of an O. Angustidens but the proportions are not quite the same… I'll let the experts judge for themselves. The (almost) complete O. Angustidens tooth in the middle is 2’1 inches (5,3 cm) long.

Identification reference material for shark teeth from Purse Area, MD?
ebfossilhound posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi all, I have probably around 500 shark teeth from Purse in Maryland. I’d really like to try to ID and categorize them, but I can’t seem to find a comprehensive source and a lot of the internet sources don’t have very good pictures. Does anyone know of a good resource to use for this? A book would be great.- 5 replies

Over the weekend I found this tiny (~3mm) shark tooth on a loose rock at a site exposing the Duck Creek Formation (and maybe the overlying Fort Worth Limestone). I have tried to match it with the teeth in The Collector's Guide to Fossil Sharks and Rays From the Cretaceous of Texas but the closest I have been able to get is Squalicorax sp. and even that doesn't seem to quite match and the book states that Squalicorax in the Texas Albian have only been found in the Weno and Pawpaw Formations. Unfortunately it only seems like the blade of the tooth is preserved as there is a bit of a lip where the blade hits matrix. I haven't attempted to prep it yet so there could be root there, but I doubt it. Does anyone have any thoughts on what shark this tooth might be from? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you know anything about modern white sharks, how big are teeth of this size? The size is 58mm. How big was this great white shark? Are great white shark teeth of this size large?

Found these teeth from Batesford Quarry which is late Oligocene to middle Miocene. I am confident that they are C. Hastalis but would appreciate a second opinion.

Hello all, I'm brand new to the forum and was hoping for some help identifying this tooth. It was found on the beach by my daughter in Cabo Pulmo area of Baja Mexico.

is this a great white? (c. carcharias) because I don't think so!
Metopolychas posted a topic in Fossil ID
Just went to the natural history museum and found these in the display. I REALLY don't think this is great white shark? Might be in the same line (Otodus seems very similar) but I'd rather check with you guys before I ask the museum if they're sure that's what it is, lol.- 8 replies
