Good evening, all. I have the opportunity to acquire this collection of caudal vertebrae. They appear to be from a hadrosaur. However, they have different coloring, so my guess is that they are from different hadrosaurs. Also, two of the pieces were broken and glued, and the glue is apparent. I have the opportunity to purchase it. Thoughts?

Thoughts on these Mosasaur caudal vertebrae being shark eaten, partially digested and regurgitated? Images from http://oceansofkansas.com/mosapath.html seem to support this. Thanks, Jim

I'd gotten an Edmontosaurus caudal vertebra from @Troodon and had decided to prepare it a bit. I had used water to soften the matrix and a metal pick. Here are the before and after pictures. Before And after Also, does anyone have any tips on how to prepare hell creek fm fossils because I just wet the matrix and basically scooped it out.

Hello everyone! There is one local report this for me and send me those pictures. For me the picture is not good enough but I can not do any things better due to the covid situation in my country so imposible for me to go there and check. It look like bone in sandstone matrix and the island is dating from early Cretaceous. No report of dinosaur before in Vietnam so if it dinosaur, it could be a good news. This formation they have found petrified wood and amber. Near this island but from Cambodia, they just found a leg bone from the island of Koh Kong that belong to the Phuwiangosaurus since last April. So can you help me to have a look about it? Thank you

I have this bone from long time ago. As seller label it as Spinosaurus caudal vertebrae bone from Kem Kem bed, Morocco. But I’m not sure about this label about Spinosaurus or other species, can you guys help me to have a look? Thank you!

Unknown fossil. Found in Pleistocene material. Inland, Venice, Florida. Specimen measures 65mm x 60mm. Smooth portion is 42mm high. I have found both Equus teeth and alligator jaw in same location. This item is a first for me. It appears to be possibly a caudal vertebra? Image 2 has a concave surface. Image 4 has a convex surface like it would match up with another concave surface. I think I have seen a photo of it before somewhere but I don't recall. Thank you for your ID assistance. -Regards, Michael

Hi all, Something different for today. I discovered this vertebra in the surf at Matoaka Cabins roughly 2 years ago. For those of you that don’t know, the rocks here are Miocene in age and preserve a nearshore marine environment. Cetacean remains are common, but other mammals (esp terrestrial) are not. Originally I thought it was a turtle vert, but now I’ve realized that it’s mammalian and possibly terrestrial in origin. It passed the burn test, by the way. My thought is that it is from a small mammal’s tail, as it closely resembles other mammalian caudal vertebrae. I’ve included a diagram of the vertebrae of Phenacodus, which show marked similarity. It’s not from Phenacodus, though as the deposits are far too young. Does anyone have any ideas on a better or more specific id? I’m not well versed in Cenozoic mammals. Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone, I just bought a caudal vertebra of a diplodocus. It is from Wyoming and quite impressive in terms of size. I have no idea if such pieces could be faked... thanks a lot for your feedbacks

I extracted this vertebrae from a 10 inch long matrix that looked like concrete. East Venice, FL, Sarasota County Pleistocene material. Lot of clay found in material adjacent to this dirt pile. I think the vert looks like image on p.341 in Fossil Vertebrates of Florida. The vertebrae is 4 inches in diameter and 4 inches high. This would be the first whale vert I found here. Mostly finding meg teeth, sloth, equus, dugong. I think it may be cetacean caudal vertebrae. I am attaching pic that looks right that I found on the net. My question is What would the estimate be of age? Would it be older than Pleistocene? I did find a Bonus 5mm micro fossil tooth in the matrix. If anyone can ID the tooth, that would be super.

Hi, Was wondering if this is a caudal vertebra from Megalosaurus? it is from Oxfordshire, England which is consistent with where Megalosaurus remains have been found but i am not sure of what diagnostic features separate Megalosaurus fossils from other dinosaurs and if there are enough diagnostic features on the bone in question. It is 6.7cm in length (2.65 inch). Thanks.

Just bought this vertebra. Small thing, just about 4,5 cm in length. Added a 1 euro coin for size reference. Obviously the spine on top and sides are gone. It was sold as a 'unidentified' theropod (caudal) from Ifezouane Formation, Kem Kem. I was wondering if people here could come to a better ID. I suspect it might just as well be crocodilian but to be honest: I'm fine with whatever it turns out to be. Didn't pay much for it anyway. So, is this: - a dinosaur or croc? - theropod - species (?) Would love to hear your opinions!

So, this is a labor of love I am attempting (probably poorly) to rebuild. Its a caudal (tail) vert from an Edmontosaurus from the SD hell creek formation. Highly fractured when recovered, and suffering from extreme root rot. Completely missing a "V" shaped portion of the anterior portion of the centrum, probably about 1/5 of the total. Surprisingly I do have the neural spine intact, just have to replace it after I finish reconstructing and filling the centrum. Also included a pic (and my guide) for what it should look like.

This bone was found at Isla Blanca Park on South Padre Island about 2 months ago. Could you please help me identify what it is and age? I am a sheller and I am finding some fossils lately and I don't know anything about them, so I really appreciate any help. Thanks so much. (I am calling this a caudal because that is the guess my brother made)
