Edmontosaurus tooth? (and question about replica Tarbosaurus claw)
Psittacosaur9 posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello everyone! I'm going to start posting fossils individually, to gain more traction on the forum. I'll post a few fossils I am worried are fake or composite today, then repost any fossils I have yet to receive identification for with higher-quality images in about a week. I bought this Edmontosaurus tooth fossil from a somewhat unreliable website online. Is it real? If any of you need more high quality photographs, please tell me. Also, as I don't know where else to post this, I purchased this Tarbosaurus claw replica a while ago. Do any of you know which digit it comes from? Thank you and hope you have a good day! -
Hi everyone, I brought a small collection of hell creek digits and claws, and wanted some help with identification. They come from Garfield county and are mostly small. Appreciate any help and thanks a lot ! first is a tiny claw, theropod or bird?? Measures about .375in second one looks like a theropod claw? Maybe dromeosaurid or struthiomimus ? .5 inches third one is a little over a inch, maybe pachy/thesce? 4th one not sure what species 1.25inch 5th one 1 inch. Turtle? 6th theropod? Dromeosaurid? Troodontid? 1 inch 7th a 1.25inch digit not sure what species. again thanks for all the help, I’m not very comfortable with identification of digits and claws yet :).

Hello, any help and or direction appreciated. Found in a wash with Pierre shale layer 60 meters away. First thought was Mosasaur flipper digit, but none seemed as asymmetrical as this.

Found in the Cle Elum, Washington area. This bone was found in the river, appears to be agatized. Would love to know if anyone could identify it. I wold imagine it’s a type of digit. Thank you in advance.

I have found numerous pleistocene period bones on river sand bars in central Iowa. Here are a few unidentified bones I am asking for help identifying. #1 sure looks like bone but I have no idea what it is. I would say fish except for the bone characteristics. #2 is a small digit bone and has some age. I have not found anything like it at that size in my google searching. #3 is also bone and does not have the look or texture of an exposed claw. You can see where another bone connects. #4 I do not know what animal this is but it appears to be an old bone that my wife unearthed along the river. Thank you so much!

Here is nice little fossilized phalange bone that I found in Florida's Peace River. Like verts, almost all phalanges look alike to me, except for size differences. I'm having a hard time ID'ing this one. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Found in the Peace River, Florida, Bone Valley. Is this a digit or a vert? And which species? It feels fossilized, and was found in a spot with other Pleistocene bits.

From the album: Yorkshire Ichthyosaur Fossils
I found these single Ichthyosaur digits on separate hunts but from around the same location. I bet they're from the same beast judging by the size. One has a rib which looks super cool.- 3 comments

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is definitely not the end of a digit from a large carnivorous theropod. The only potentials from the Morrison formation where it was found, would be different species of ceratasaurs, allosaurs, and torvosaurus, right? and they, along with most carnivorous theropods have claws at the end of every digit, including the little foot&heel stubbies, don't they? wouldnt this have to be from something without claws? Or at least no claw on this?

I was lucky enough to get some matrix from the famous cookie cutter creek this weekend from @digit and started searching through it grain by grain tonight. Came across this tooth and can't seem to find it in any of my papers and books. Sure I just overlooked it, but I'm sure someone can help me.

Found this interesting little bone in among some scrap Kem Kem bones. At first the shape struck me as suggesting a digit of some sort, just wondered whether any further ID might be possible? (Or maybe its not a digit at all?)

Hi everyone! I found this in Montana this summer, and I'm pretty sure it's a triceratops digit. If so, is there a way to tell which it is? Just bored and curious. Also, which side would the vale core have attached to? The bumpy, textured side? It was pretty shattered when I found it, so I pieced it together. The white stuff is pales putty I just haven't painted yet. Thank you! -Lauren

Now that my kids are getting into fossils, they've asked me about two of my old finds that have been on the shelf for years. I picked these up on the shoreline of Eastern Virginia, during a college geology lab/field trip. I recall there being a big vertebra eroding from the cliffside, but never got around to revisiting the site. Anyway, it's a tooth and a digit. I think I recall my professor saying the latter was from a dolphin? Just wondered if these would be something that could be identified with any precision, and if so, if there's a need for any better angles/shots/details. Thanks in advance!
