Hi everyone I found on internet this object today which should be a complete finger of a Spinosaurus Aegyptiacus. I would like to know from your experience and from your opinion if it is natural as they say, or reconstructed, especially the final hook. Dimensions: 32×20×52cm Origin: Morocco. Keme Kem bed Thank you.

So I split a slab at home and this showed up. Unfortunately compressed and a bit splintered, but negative and positive. Found in Helmsdale, Scotland. Jurassic marine sediment. It looks like a claw, but I also saw see hybodont claspers and squid hooks with this shape. Any ideas?

Oxford clay, Peterborough Member, Jurassic, Callovian, Whittlesey in Cambridgeshire I collected this a few years ago, and I'm unclear whether it's a large cephalopod hook, or part of a fish, or something else entirely. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Is anyone aware of any Cretaceous birds with hookbills? Specifically like parrots, not hawks.

(PL XXVIII. fig. 3). Sp. Ch.—Stem less than twice the thickness of the lateral branches; lateral branches rather more than the width of the midrib apart, obscure ; lateral branches carinate, and bearing two alternating rows of very small, round, prominent pores, which indent the margin slightly ; the stem is obscurely carinate, and has usually two rows of small, round, prominent pores, which do not alternate, or reach the margin ; one at the origin of each lateral branch, and three between one branch and the next. The small size, and great number of the pores distinguish this from every other species of Glauconome I know. It is a very large species. Length of imperfect specimen one inch nine lines ; length of lateral branches two lines ; diameter of midrib about half a line. Collected by Mr. Charles B. Newenham of Cork, who kindly presented the specimen figured. http://www.thefossil...-carboniferous/-
