I was introducing my great_nephew Jake to the Peace River, he foscused in "small, tiny" fossils and found some good stuff... One was shark teeth, and the other a claw. looks birdlike to me so calling on @Auspex to help ID or just speculate. The 6mm shark teeth: The 7 mm claw: All suggestions and comments appreciated.

I recently saw this available for sale during one of my latest hunts for new stuff. Seller claims it to be a dromaeosaur claw from Morocco (definitely looks the part for Kem Kem material). I am beyond useless with anything other than teeth, so could someone offer an opinion on what kind of claw this might be? Size: 14mm Thanks, all!

found in gravel from Brazos river here in west Houston it appears to be a very tiny claw but will let the more experienced determine also there is what appears to be a small bone also took a pic of it with micro scope camera. I guess another possibility could be a tiny tooth?

Hello again, I found this unusual shaped piece on a beach on West Coast, Florida. It's hard to tell whether it's a suggestive rock or mineralized bone. It reminded me of a claw or hoof core. I attached 5 photo views. What do you think?

This was found in the Peace River (Florida). I'm not sure what it is. Is it part of a tooth, or a claw or something else? Part of the specimen appears to be hollowed out. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, Wanted to ask whether the morphology of this claw matches well with an Abelisaur claw, it is 1.5 inches long, and from the Kem Kem. I know it isn't Spinosaurid and the shape seems to suggest either Abelisaurid or Carcharodontosaurid, but i can't be certain. Thanks.

Hello everyone, my name is Nolan. I'm new to the forum. I've never posted anything before, but now I find myself at a loss to identify my latest find. Any help you can give me would be really appreciated! INFO Location: Fort Erie, Ontario. Details: It's rough with random black spots. The item is ridged on both sides and it has a slight curve to it. The main body of the item has a different texture (see final photo). The top has a different type of brown stone connected to it. The item was found by chance on a beach, on the northern side of Lake Erie, by the town of Fort Erie. It's currently spring time and the ice is just starting to melt of the beaches. I've attached some photos below that should help with identifying the item. If you require other information or photos just let me know. Thank you for your time!

Spinosaurus claw - fake
Jaimin013 posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hi all the seller says that this is a spinosaur claw from Kem Kem however it look a fake to me and or/carved out of a bone or some other material. Not too sure what to make of the blood groove either as that's how alot of fakes can be spotted but again that looks carved out too! See above shape just doesn't look right especially around the tip area crack above..- 15 replies

ID requested: lower permian vertebrate fauna from Texas red beds & Waurika
ziggycardon posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi! I recently acquired a few new additions to my permian collection, but there are a few pieces of which I am not a 100 % whether they are ID'd correctly, simply because I am not yet knowlegdeable about the material. So I thought it might be a good idea to post the ones I am doubtfull about here, as I know there are a lot of people more knowlegdeable than me who probably could ID them. The first item is a small claw listed as "juvenile dimetrodon limbatus" from the Red Beds, Archer County, Texas, USA I was a bit doubtfull when they said "juvenile" dimetrodon claw, but I got it anyway because it's a very nice permian claw which was an okay price regardless the ID. The second item is a caudal vertebra that was listed as "Edaphosaurus" (from the Archer City Formation, Red Beds, Archer County, Texas, USA) which came as a set along with a piece of sail spine which without doubt belongs to Edaphosaurus. The last items were sold as a collection of "Eryops megacephalus" fossils from the Wellington garbar complex, Waurika, Okhlahoma. From left to right are a piece of skull plate, a toe bone, a piece of dermal armor and a tooth.- 5 replies

I bought this claw a little while ago, for close to nothing. Still waiting for the item to arrive. Not sure what it is from though. It was dug up in Hell Creek. The claw and bone measure about an inch in length in total. Anyone who would have a qualified guess?

Anyone have any insight to whether this may be a fossilized claw of some sort or just a peculiar shaped piece of limestone. I found this in central Texas outside of Bandera. Thanks in advance for any help.
