These two items were found sifting for shark teeth on a beach near Venice Florida. Ruler is in inches, sorry. The larger I believe is a tooth from a herbivore. I'm new and not sure how to differentiate, or if it may be from something else. The smaller one looked like a piece of crab pincher to me, but has a row of round hollows that correspond to the thickness of the piece as it tapers. (Tooth sockets?) The break at the larger end appears to be hollow/filled with sediment.? The tip appears broken off and hollow as well. There are ridges along the length, and it is slightly curved.(I tried to get it all in the pics) Is this likely a fish or small reptile? Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

Found sifting on a beach in Venive FL. It has a tapering hollow in one end, an outer coating or layer that is 2/3 or more broken or worn off, and the inner section looks layered (wavy) on the outside, but doesnt carry through where it was broken off at the other end (just smooth solid). Is this some sort of fossilized worm or sea plant? I have found a couple broken off antlers recently. Could this be a piece of antler? The center parts don't have the porous look of other bone bits I have seen.

Any help identifying these finds would be great! Everything was found at Caspersen/Manasota beach in Florida. Some pics are iPhone photos...I don't have a macro lens for my mirrorless camera yet. I did the best I could getting up close. The first and most interesting thing to me.. 1) petrified wood? 2) Gator tooth? 3) Crab claw? 4) Ray plates?
