Hello all! Just finished going through a small batch of matrix from the York River and found a some fossils that I need help IDing. 1. These ones strike me as some sort of polychaete jaws, but not sure. 2. Some denticles or teeth but they seem a lot different than the skate (Rostroraja sp.) that I've been finding (see 2.1). These do not have the cusp or base morphology that I've been observing and are quite smaller. 2.1 Rostroraja teeth Thanks so much! Miguel M

Hi All, I found this tooth sifting in one of the Cretaceous brooks in Monmouth Co., NJ. during a trip around November last year I wasn't sure what it was at first (initially thought talon possibly from something more recent), however after showing photos to a few local folk more familiar/knowledgeable with the fossils in this area (Thanks @frankh8147!), the consensus was, it's a very compressed Mosasaur tooth. Makes sense as Mosasaur teeth can be found here on occasion, and this tooth has several common features. However, I've had a couple individuals suggest theropod tooth when I initially shared it in a couple groups back in November. This was based on the compression of the root. I'm still leaning towards Mosasaur, but recently a different person brought up the theropod theory, so I thought why not throw it up here for opinion. Multiple photos, some redundant (have done a couple "photo shoots" with this one lol). If photos of any specific area would be beneficial, please let me know. Thanks in advance for your feedback/opinions! Truly appreciate the help.

Hi everyone. I'm looking to see if this tooth can be ID'd. Found in the limestone quarry where I work in Bosque County, Texas. It eroded out from a cut through Kiamichi and Duck Creek formations. Also found were several pycnodont and shark teeth. Size is 6mm.

Hello , I have this two still unidentified pieces in my collection. A bone and a tooth. But from what ? The bone looks like If it came from a joint (flat , smooth area ). But I have no clue to which animal the tooth belongs to. Could it be that these pieces are from the pleistocene ? I found them in Hejlsminde , Denmark in a cliff. Thanks !

Hello,I am new to this forum. I recently acquired this tooth not that long ago,I was hoping it would be a Tyrannosaurid.Then I started to have some doubts looking at other papers.I understand you can’t identify Tyrannosaur Campanian teeth further down to Gorgosaurus, Daspletosaurus, and etc. at this size. I just hope to find out if it is a Tyrannosaurid or some other group of theropods like Dromeosaurs. My original idea is that it was too large to be a Dromeosaur from this formation. So I went with the Tyrannosaur ID but I have doubts. Info: Tyrannosaur tooth? with a partial Hadrosaur tooth Location:Judith River Formation, Hill County, Montana “1.05” inches long. There seems to be no Mesial serrations or they are worn down. Thanks for the help. I’ll of course add more photos if needed!😊

Hey there, I found this chimaerid tooth a couple of Months ago in sand deposits from antwerp. It is nothing like the common chimaera tooth you find there usual. It is pliocene in age and after some research it looked similar to Chimaera gosseleti, Winkler, 1880 (now Harriotta gosseleti) . But This species is found in oligocene deposits. The only recent publications about this species I could find was from this site:https://bioone.org/journals/journal-of-vertebrate-paleontology/volume-40/issue-1/02724634.2020.1772275/A-New-Genus-of-Chimaerid-Fish-Holocephali-Chimaeridae-from-the/10.1080/02724634.2020.1772275.short but I dont have the permision to enter this article, the last photo is one of this article I could enter with Google. i hope you can help me identifying this tooth! the squares are 1x1 cm gr max Pijpelink

Tooth measures .83 inches and wasfound in Asfla, Goulmima, Morocco at the Akrobou Formation. From what I’ve read this is either Thililua or Manemergus Anguirostris and the seller wasn’t 100% sure.

My international measurement of choice... a raspberry. Not only is it a good scale, but folks, these raspberries were as killer a find as some fossils considering their price. When is the last time you paid 2.99 for 12oz of raspberries?! I digress. 🙂 Both pieces were found in Custer County, Montana in a Hell Creek microsite.

Hey, So a while back me and my family were working on an excavation project for a house and accidentally managed to breach the cretaceous formation. I found a bunch of cool stuff and I was hoping someone could help ID some of these finds. I'm a total new guy when it comes to this so I would appreciate the help. These finds were found in Central Texas about an hour from Austin. 1. My best guess this is some sort of bone but to what animal I do not know. 2. This is another thing that appears to be bone that I found. Again, unknown. 3. I think i actually have an idea to what this is. I was thinking a jaw piece of a fish maybe enchodus? 4. This is probably the weirdest of the bunch. I had to keep the dirt on it because it was breaking apart. This looks like some sort of bone as well. I didn't bother cleaning this one too much because it was so fragile to the point where I actually had to glue it back while prep so it might not look like much. 5. This one to me looks like a piece of a tooth of sorts. I couldn't quite get a good picture but there is little serrations on the tip. I got a bunch more stuff such as shark teeth and other smaller bones that I would like IDs on as well but for now these will do. Again, all of this stuff was found in the same place. Thanks for the help!

I recently found this partial tooth in Florida and I really think it’s dire wolf. It looks exactly like the upper carnassial dire wolf teeth online. The only measurement i have is that the thickest part of the enamel from top to bottom is 17mm thick, not accounting for wear. Can you guys confirm/deny? Thanks! filtered-3F76D20A-199B-4B93-8957-ACB17287FC39.mp4

This is a small tooth I found in some debris from Green Mill Run, NC. Initially I passed it over as a broken goblin shark tooth, and while that’s probably most likely the case, it seems too flat to be a shark tooth, and something about it seems more actinopterygian or even reptilian in origin. Any thoughts? Locality is Cretaceous and Neogene combo.
