ID requested: Eocene Bivalves & Gastropods (Tielt formation, Egem, Belgium)
ziggycardon posted a topic in Fossil ID
A few months back I recieved a bucket full of material from the (now closed) Tielt Formation, Egem, Belgium (Eocene, Ypresian, 53 mya) The material should be rich in shark teeth (I am waiting for the spring weather to go through it all) but there were some very nice Gastropods and Bivalves in the mix as well. Unfortunately Bivalves and Gastropods are far from my speciality, especially Cenozoïc ones... So I was hoping someone here might have some more experience with these critters here to might ID them. 1: Some Bivalves 2) A block with some bivalves,-

ID requested: Eocene shark teeth from Tielt Formation, Egem (Belgium)
ziggycardon posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi everyone, today I arrived a small batch of shark teeth which came from the Egem Clay, Tielt Formation, Egem, Belgium that date back to the Ypresian, Eocene (53 mya). I attempted to ID them but as usual I would like to see what your imput is on my ID's. Tooth 1: Striatolamia macrota or maybe even Cretalamna sp. Tooth 2: Brachycarcharias lerichei? Tooth 3: Striatolamia macrota Tooth 4: Striatolamia macrota Tooth 5: Hypotodus verticalis or Striatolamia macrota -

Hi everyone, yesterday I recieved a lot of shark teeth, 20 of which came from the Egem Clay, Tielt Formation, Egem, Belgium that date back to the Ypresian, Eocene. The teeth are very small sized so I tried a macro lens to take pictures (I apologize for the not always clear images), and I believe most belong to Physogaleus secundus. But I wanted to share my thoughts on the ID's of the teeth and see what your imput would be as I am not an expect on Eocene shark teeth. Tooth 1: Physogaleus secundus Tooth 2: Physogaleus secundus Tooth 3: P -
A tiny tooth of an Abdounia minutissima. Bought from an old collection. The site at which it was collected, the Egem quarry, is now unfortunately closed. (Thanks to @darktheumbreon for finding the family!)

Hi all, Here some sharkteeth found in Egem, Belgium. From the Yperian stage of the early Eocene (approx 50 mya). Anyone have a clue on the species? Have a nice weekend, Max

Well, after another exhausting indoor hunting trip from material I received from another forum member, I think it is time to show of some of my cool finds. I decided to start with just the ray teeth. I found a large number of different species. These are all from Egem, Belgium. Early Eocene, Ypresian, Tielt Formation. Hovering the cursor over the picture will give you its ID and size, I learned this from Marco, Thanks Marco. If anyone has another idea on any of my ID's feel free to pass it along. I am still learning to ID many of these ray teeth, but I think I have it right. .. this
