I found this in the Judith River Formation years ago but have never got it fully identified as a Hadrosaur or Ceratopsian jaw piece. Any help will be appreciated.

Real or fake Ceratopsian bone?
TerahB posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello Could someone please give their opinion regarding if this an authentic Ceratopsian bone? Per the seller it’s from Wyoming. Thank you! -
Hello, this is a very small tooth that I had a hard time taking pictures of. I need a new camera or phone able to take nice up close pics!! This tooth was found at a site in Wyoming that I am unsure whether it is Lance or Mesa Verde formation wise. Anyway, this tooth is complete and very nice looking. I believe it is Ceratopsian but as to which species I am unsure. You can see the size of it as compared to my finger (sorry, I work with oil based materials and my fingers are stained up!). Please let me know what opinions y'all have!

Any idea if this is ceratopsian and if so what it is?
prehistoricpeasant posted a topic in Fossil ID
First piece I suspect is frill and it’s about 2-2.5 inches long. Second is what I think is a toe bone and is 1.5-2 inches long. Thanks! Found in horse shoe canyon Alberta. -

From the album: Hell Creek / Lance Formations
Sold as Triceratops sp. by the BHI. Normally, Ceratopsid teeth should be considered indeterminate since the teeth of the large-bodied Ceratopsids present in the Hell Creek fauna are virtually indistinguishable. Trusting the ID of the BHI would be to label it as Triceratops sp., but to be conservative (and since I don't know their reasoning behind the ID), I chose to label it as Ceratopsidae cf. Triceratops sp. -
Hello Fossil Forum, this is on auction as a nose horn of a juvenile Triceratops horridus. It’s from the Hell Creek FM of Montana. What do you think about it’s preservation? I like it's look and surface structure but there’s not much online to compare with. According to the sellers (which I had pleasant deals with before, all items as described) it’s without restoration or repair. Do you think it’s indeed from T. horridus or more likely T. prorsus? Thanks!

Yet Another Psittacosaurus Skull
ConnorR posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
This Psittacosaurus skull comes from a seller, who claims that it has "5% restoration". Are there any red flags here? -
A couple larger dino vertebrae I found on the Judith River last year, I believe the larger round one is Hadrosaur but not certain, the longer rectangular shape vertebra I have no idea. I was hoping someone would be able to help identify.

Found these pieces sitting together today and I’m wondering if they might be pieces of a ceratopsian skull. Don’t seem to fit together so they might not be from the same dinosaur. They have similar texture to other ceratopsian skull bones I have including a lacrimal and frill pieces, but I might be off on that assumption. Dinosaur park fm. I’ll also toss this in too, though I haven’t cleaned it at all so it might be hard to ID. It’s a separate piece, and was so weird I couldn’t leave it behind.

From the album: Dinosaurs
Triceratops prorsus Hell Creek Fm., Harding Co., SD, USA 3.5 cm height On the ranch where this tooth was found, only T. prorsus skulls have been found in the 30+ years the company has operated there, lending a very probable, precise identification for this Ceratopsian tooth. (T. prorsus was one of the last dinosaurs, younger than T. horridus. The two species are also stratigraphically separated in the Hell Creek Fm., so it makes sense that one may only find one species in a particular deposit.)

Our favorite traveling ceratopsian. -
As a lot of you have probably noticed, Sara the Ceratopsian has been spending a week or so in Germany with me. We managed to find some time between our various adventures where Sara was able to sit still for a few minutes each day so that I could work on her portrait. So, without further ado... Tim was just so gracious as to improve the quality of the picture, so I'm adding that below.

Found in the scollard formation. Seems to have the blood grooves and general shape that I've seen on horns. I'm guessing it would just be a section from the tip. @Troodon

I have this chunk of bone from the Judith River formation of Hill County, Montana, and I was wondering if this is a partial horn? It was found with some other small skull fragments, but this is the main piece. Does anybody more familiar with ceratopsian horns have any insight? It is 5.3 inches in length (I forgot a ruler picture, my apologies). Thanks in advance!

...so I headed out to find some Dinos. All fossils dinosaur park fm. Got some new land permissions so I have lots of area to wander. Here’s some notable finds from today. Large hadrosaur (or possibly ceratopsian) foot bone, large hadrosaur foot claw, tyrannosaurid caudal vert, possible tyrannosaurid toe bone, and some indet. fused verts. These will be pictured, there were various other verts and smaller bones found that I may post later.

Commonly called "spit teeth," these teeth were shed by the animal after heavy usage. ^From "Wear biomechanics in the slicing dentition of the giant horned dinosaur Triceratops"
