Here are two small oddball bones that I found. Both appear to be complete or mostly complete, but they have odd shapes that I am having difficulty making sense of. This is especially true for the last one, which is shaped like a human ear (I know it's not that, LOL, but that's what it reminds me of). Both were found in my sifter on the Peace River at Gardner (Pleistocene?, Bone Valley, Florida) Any help would be appreciated. #1 #2 -

On my last trip to Gardner (Peace River, Bone Valley member, Hawthorn group, Hardee County, Florida), I found these small Pleistocene mammal/vertebrate teeth. Even when these are pristine, I have difficulty with them because they all look so similar. Some of these are pretty worn, so ID might be impossible. I tried to snap good photos of the crowns to show the distinctive "squiggles". Can anyone ID these? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I compared them against photos of previous teeth I have found, but I couldn't come up with anything. Three more, with one oddball on the end :

I live just outside of Pittsburgh PA in Coraopolis and I found a strange fossil while digging the other day. I think it could be some kind of fossilized wood, but to me it looks like a large nut, like an almond almost. I'm not sure the age of it, but was wondering if anyone has seen anything similar.

Hello, I've put teeth here for Id a couple of times and always received a satisfactory answer. I hope you can help me this time too. It is about this Ceratopsidae tooth from the Niobrara Formationn (Wyoming). Unfortunately no fossils of this group are known from this formation and I therefore wanted to ask you if you have any idea what species of dinosaurs the tooth could belong to. The tooth is 1,5cm in size. I hope if you can help me with this! Best regards from Germany!

My stepson Josh found this today while hunting in the White River Formation (Colorado) - it's a big vertebra that was sticking out of a hillside. This formation is Eocene-Oligocene. Can anyone help ID this?

Hello everyone, I'm looking for a second opinion on this piece, a fish head from the green river fauna, while I believe it maybe Amia due to comparisons I'm not to confident, any help/guidance is and will be appreciated.

The wife and I went to Gardner yesterday (report and photos will be forthcoming), and I found a bunch of stuff. This is an oddball that I am not sure about. Something about it says to me "pleistocene megafauna" - it has a wood-grainy texture on the less-damaged portion. It's broken, but I am hoping that the position of the hole and shape might be diagnostic. Does anyone know what critter this comes from?

I found this specimen at Penn Dixie last spring and I thought it would be good practice for prepping since I'm new to it. I at first assumed it was a piece of broken shell, but as I chipped away at it with a pin vice, I found that it was much bigger in size than I thought. I am having trouble figuring out what it actually is even though I've removed a substantial amount of material at this point. There are striations that are similar to a lot of bivalves in the area but the general shape appears more coral-like in my opinion. What does everyone else think?

I collected these when I was younger and living in the Black Hills, South Dakota. Because they were collected 20-25 years ago I cannot be more specific about the location. My family owned some land in the northern part of the Black Hills and they are most likely from there. I really don't have much knowledge in this area but both seemed interesting and I have always wondered what they might be, if anything. Thanks in advance!

Interesting gravel pit find in Monticello, Maine (Aroostook county, slightly north of Houlton - NE Maine). This specific area is identified as “Ordoclavian-Silurian marine sandstone and slate“ on the FEMA Simplified Bedrock Geologic Map Of Maine, and the north branch of the Meduxnekeag River passes through this small town. I’d be very appreciative for ANY information anyone can glean about this find from the photos and information I’ve provided. Thanks always for your time and consideration. ~caroline

I’ve got a dinosaur bone my father gave me years ago. He got it at a fossil shop either in Wyoming or Colorado. No idea what geological formation it came from. I don’t know much about identifying dinosaur bones and would appreciate any knowledge or thoughts you’d be willing to share with me. The bone is ~11.5 cm in length and ~11.5 cm in circumference. Cheers.

Along with the Daspletosaurus and Alberta fossils I have been looking at in trying to get. I’ve have also been looking at some European Dinosaur fossils to get. I have found this and am wondering if it’s a IGUANODON vertebra?, or another animal? It’s from the Isle of Wight, England. Thank you!!
