    Spinosaur bones hollow?

    I recently purchased this metatarsal that was described as coming from a Spinosaurus. A small piece at the end of the bone (bottom end on the photo) came loose so I had a chance to look inside the bone with a flashlight and noticed the bone is hollow inside. As far as I understand most theropod bones are hollow but Spinosaur bones are said to be very dense, to make it easier for them to submerge into water. Now I'm a little confused, is it possible this isn't a Spinosaur bone but possibly from a Carcharodontosaur? @Troodon?
  2. Hello all, After a few shrimp I finally decided to try giving a crab nodule a go. This is my first time working on a Washington Pulalius vulgaris and so far I am pretty happy with my progress, It hasn't been too sticky and while it's more disarticulated then I expected it seems to all be there. The nodule before prep - this side turned out to be the bottom so I quickly switched to the other After about an hour, I managed not to ding up the carapace too much which I am thrilled about. I am now bout 4 hours in. There are 4 legs on the righthand side and I've managed to expose them only losing a part of the bottommost one. I'm particularly happy with how the claw has come out. The left-hand side of the crab however is a bigger challenge, the one leg I have exposed so far is hollow and you can see the two holes which I think indicate the left arm is hollow also. To prepare them, I am thinking of injecting some thin resin into the voids in the hopes that will give the shell some internal stability. If anyone has any other ideas or experience dealing with voids I'd love to hear it. I am excited to get back to prepping this one.

    Hollow fossil

    I found hollow fossil this in a creek bed in Alachua County. I would really appreciate help identifying it. Thanks.
  4. This one has me a bit stumped. It's pretty tiny. Sorry for forgetting the measuring device but its 3/8" or 9.53 mm. I've researched the heck out of it and have no hollow teeth from there let alone this small? Thanks so much!!

    Hollow Bones from Hell Creek Microsite

    Hey everyone, Here are a few bones I found at a microsite in the Hell Creek formation this summer near Baker, Montana. All of these shown below are hollow, so I'm assuming they are theropod, but I was wondering if anyone could identify them further. Not sure how specific you can get with fragments like this, but any advice would be helpful. Thanks!

    hollow ribs? pterosaur?

    Hi there, I’d like to get the expert opinion of you all. Could these be pterosaur ribs? i just know they’re from Whitney, Yorkshire. As you can see, they’re hollow, and all I know of, that would have little hollow ribs like that are pterosaurs, and avian dinosaurs, but I'd imagine it was very uncommon for articulated ribs from a raptor to make it to, and “survive” an aquatic deposit, intact and untouched, although I know pterosaur bones are sometimes found in aquatic fossil deposits, at least from coastal areas. I'm not sure what else would be found there with hollow ribs, and these also seem like maybe they’re too long for ribs of that size/width, so I'm at a total loss now, and wanted to ask for help in figuring out what these could be from. I'm also interested in what the large flat bone might be, and any others too, of course, if anyone can recognize what it/they might be.

    Equus Long Bone

    Unknown long bone. Found in Pleistocene material. Inland, Venice, Florida. Specimen measures 62mm wide x 46mm. Canal in pic: L5 is 13mm wide. I have found Equus teeth in same location. Overall length of this hollowed bone is 123mm to break. I could not find an image for the joint surface to compare. I recovered the Equus tooth (EQ_L7) in the same location. It is a M2, left (upper molar). Thank you for your ID assistance. -Regards, Michael

    Is this a Fossil?

    Greetings all, first post! So I found this bone in the Olentangy River (Columbus, Ohio) the other day, sort of looked out of place? It passed the flame test, is it a fossil?
  9. The lockdown has given me some time to go through some of my finds from the last year. I had another closer look at this fossil that I found at a Cretaceous marine site here in New Zealand. It almost looks like it could be a hollow bone? Has anyone got any idea what it could be?

    Bird bone?

    Found the below tiny bone in the Peace River. It is hollow and apporx. 1" long. Looks like a ball in a lacrosse stick at first glance. From information on the forum and a search for bird bone images I think it is in fact a tiny bird bone. I would appreciate opinions from anyone with experience with this type of bone. Tried to get a photo of the hollow end but it didn't come out well. Thanks!

    Tyrannosaur bone structure

    Hi, does anyone know if theropod bones are completely hollow. I saw this for sale and was wondering whether it was theropod or just float because it wasn't fully hollow but had gaps and holes, the website wouldn't allow me to copy the image though.
  12. Found near McFaddin Beach Texas. It feels like bone but the walls are thin and it is hollow. Inner ear bone? Some sort of urchin?

    Modern Bone?

    Hey everyone, I found this bone in the White River Formation and when I started to prep it, it made me think that it might be modern bone. The bone is hollow and when I was prepping it, the bone would crumble and break really easily if you tried to snap it. Does anyone know if it’s modern?

    Mystery item found in western ND

    Hi everyone, I came across this object earlier this evening and I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out what it is. It was found embedded in a soft rock (soft enough to scrape away large chunks with a pocket knife) with just a small cross-section exposed. It first grabbed my attention because it appears round and hollow in cross-section, and was a different color and harder than the surrounding material. The rock it was found in was at the top of a hill, and located in western North Dakota, just barely across the border from Montana. My friend and I tried to brainstorm what it could be, but everything we could think of didn't quite seem to fit. If anyone has any ideas, I'd really appreciate it! Also willing to accept that it might just be a weird rock... Thanks! (More photos to come in the comments)
