I found this tooth (half) in a pleistocene lag deposit outside of Summerville, SC. A local guide, author, etc. said it was a fish tooth, but he couldn't remember off the top of his head what kind. Is anyone able to ID it, or is "fish tooth" the closest I can get? Thank you!

Not exactly sure what cladodont this one belongs too. Less than 10mm due to missing the tip. -
From the album: Fossildude's Upper Devonian Fish Fossils
Unidentified fish tooth - possibly sarcopterygian. Catskill Formation Metzgers' Quarry, Canton PA. Upper Devonian. This is actually an imprint of a tooth, with a bit of the enamel/bone material (white,pink,blue) left behind in the imprint. Tooth itself was destroyed in the splitting process, as it was not visible at first. Oh well.© 2021 T. Jones

I’m legitimately lost as to what this could be. Devonian, Milwaukee formation. Fish tooth plate?

Yesterday I was in a creek that I haven't been to in a while. I got the normal fossils, mainly shark teeth and the occasional meg frag or mako, but I also got these strange fossils that I have never seen before. The first one reminds me of a dolphin ear bone we got earlier this year, so I was wandering if it was some sort of ear bone. The second fossil I am very curious about. At first I thought fossil barnacle, but it appears to have enamel on top. The closest thing I could compare it to was a stingray dermal plate I saw in a book, but the bottom of mine seems

Found this on Jones Island, SC. Appears to be an Alligator tooth without the root. Anyone have any thoughts?

Cretaceous shark teeth I found in Grayson County, TX

Eagle Ford Group, Post Oak Creek, Sherman, TX, USA I'm curious to know the identity of these shark teeth so help from experienced fossil hunters would be much appreciated! -
I've been out to the Lake Waco Research Area (or just the Waco Pit as many people call it) about nine or ten times so far this year. Over the course of those trips I've found a lot of interesting things such as several species of sharks' teeth, some very small sea urchins, fish vertebrae, and of course the common pyritized miniature ammonites. But I've also found several things that I have yet to definitively identify, such as the three finds that I'm making this post about. First is a small piece of shale with a peculiar pattern that runs off the edge. It reminded me of millipede tracks

Is there enough left of this fish tooth to identify it? ( Missouri )
Samurai posted a topic in Fossil ID
Location: Missouri Period: Pennsylvanian Formation: Iola Limestone (Muncie Creek Shale Member or Raytown limestone member) Hello! I happened to take a trip to my usual fossil hunting spots in search of another tooth that was stuck in a rock I planned to dig out but found this delicate one before it and took it home. Sadly this was missing most of its pieces but I thought it could be identified. I couldn't really think of anything it most resembles as it does not look like my Campodus teeth or Petalodus teeth. That's mostly why I posted it here but it very well coul -

Receiving this gorgeous but mysterious specimen is from Upper Pennsylvanian limestone dated around 290-300 million years ago from somewhere around Kansas City. Looks like a tooth to me and my best guess would be orodus? But I have little experience with Pennsylvanian shark teeth in general and especially from this area, also cannot find a comparison elsewhere online. Any help will be appreciated.

I have a number of Lee Creek teeth that can't be identified any closer than Unknown Fish Tooth. This one may end up in the same "drawer" but I hope it's characteristic enough for someone to point me in the right direction. The tooth is basically round, but it transitions into a well defined spear shape at the tip. It's very distinct, but not sure it shows well in the pix. Although it's rather small, current thinking is maybe Enchodus sp. ? Scale is 1mm. Appreciate you looking and welcome comments.

I named this topic as Fish tooth #2? because this fossil is very similar to my another fossil in a previous topic a while ago. Nobody really have any consensus on what it is and I thought it might be a fish tooth. I hope I will be lucky this time to have someone identify it for me with confidence. Located in Ellsworth county, Kansas, age of Albian, and from Kiowa Formation. It's approximately 4mm long. I know identifying specimens from Kiowa Formation can be a real pain since it's so little researched! lol...

Here are a few more of my recent Cookie Cutter matrix finds. I am curious about what kind of fish has / had teeth like the one in this photo. And I am thinking that this is a bit from a fish, possibly a mouth or jaw part. Seems too thick for something like an operculum ... any guesses? And finally, are either of these specimens coprolite? @GeschWhat Thanks for looking.

I found this matrix containing something that reminds me of the fossilized fish tooth pictures that I have seen around on here. When I noticed this, I chipped this matrix section off of a larger shell hash plate containing mostly Turritella sp. and bivalves. Its original location is in Ellsworth county, Kansas at Kanopolis reservoir. Age of this matrix is Albian and it is from Kiowa formation-Longford Member. Length of this 'tooth' is about .25 inches/6.5 mm. Can anyone identify what it is? It is currently soaking in a bowl of water, I hope to remove more of the matrix off to get a better

Hey guys. I'm looking for some help with this large mystery fish tooth from the late Carboniferous of Illinois. The closest match i can find is from the Devonian lobed finned fish Hyneria. But this is late Carboniferous almost Permian. Another contender just based on size is the Rhizodont. But it's not rounded. This tooth flattens out to two cutting edges that are very sharp. It honestly reminds me of a Barracuda tooth. This broken tooth measures about 20mm, but would have most likey been around 30mm if complete. It is associated with a Megalichthys scale and Orthanth

Hi all, I found this concretion when I was fossil hunting in Yaverland, Isle of Wight. It appears to have a tooth and bone fragments in it. I was wondering if anyone could help identify what these fossils may have belonged to. Many thanks in advance!

So this is at Texas Tarrant County near a large pond. Not sure if the tooth is crocodile, fish, marine dinosaur or small mammel. The rock with circles on it I'm guessing is an imprint of a shell. And the other one I think is bone in Rock not sure if it's like a tooth if so I guess bovine or triceratops but I'm not sure if it's a recent bone or a bone from the dinosaur era (or if it's a bone at all). Also a general question of how do you know if something is a modern bone or dinosaur bone, I found some level surface and you can see the face of the bone, the rest is in the ground and it's near a
