  1. Hi everybody, Today I bring you pictures of what is allegedly a Pachy tail vertebrae with intact processes. I studied what has been found from Pachycephalosaurus and I'm struggling to place this bone along the tail, which is what the seller is claiming. I don't see where the processes are swept back like this one is. Could this be a different dinosaur? The same seller also has a Pachycephalosaurus rib which I'm also trying to figure out how to ID. Any help is appreciated.

    Second ID post, more SC finds

    Please be patient as I learn how to do this. Here is the fossil that should have gone with that info: I believe this is a mammal tooth (maybe Raccoon?) but it appears broken so that may impact identification. [It comes from an estate collection I acquired last year, all unidentified but labeled as coming from Edisto Beach, SC on dates ranging from the late 1970s through the early 1990s.]

    Steinkerns?

    I am learning how to spot steinkerns, and I believe that all of these are examples. The first set of three would be gastropods, I think, and the set of two smaller ones are possibly phosphatic steinkerns of coral. I am not certain. [These come from an estate collection I acquired last year, all unidentified but labeled as coming from Edisto Beach, SC on dates ranging from the late 1970s through the early 1990s.]

    Tail Spines?

    These all appear the same to me, and I think that makes all of them stingray tail spines? [It comes from an estate collection I acquired last year, all unidentified but labeled as coming from Edisto Beach, SC on dates ranging from the late 1970s through the early 1990s. ]
  5. wellsay

    What type of fossil is this?

    I don’t need anything specific, just the category it falls under. Is it coral, bone, etc. It is very small, about 1/2 x 2/3 x 1/4 (inches).

    Brachiopod ID

    I received this Brachiopod from my parents a while back after they took a trip up to Boston (this was before I started fossil hunting) and as I noticed it in the forgotten back corner of my display case yesterday I realized I could probably get an ID on it. Unfortunately as it was bought from a gift shop I have no locality of where it's from, or the age, but hopefully we can make due and get as close as possible, thanks! (3.1 cm corner to corner)
  7. Aegypticus

    Is this a fossil

    (First of all, I have almost no information about the location in which this specimen was found. Sorry in advance) I've had this for years, a family member found it on a trip, and gave it to me when I was about 9-10, but it was so long ago that I cannot remember where they found it, all I remember is that it was in some gravel on the side of a river. And I know it was found in either Zimbabwe or Botswana. Not much to go on I'm afraid. Could it be a fossilized bone? P.S. Please excuse the quality of the pics, I'm still learning how to take good ones.

    Need ID

    Can someone please help me ID this tooth? It was found in Jacksonville FL
  9. Hi all - found this at a site in Central Texas that I believe is part of the Ozan formation. I’ve found a couple of similarly poorly preserved fossils that I’ve been told were likely marine reptiles of some sort. Anyone have an idea of what this gnarly thing might be? Looked like a jaw bone at first glance, but I have no real idea. I gently scrubbed it to clean it a little but the gravel is cemented on there pretty strongly. Thanks!

    Asaphus knyrkoi or plautini?

    Greetings everybody. I came across this Asaphus that is for sale. Seller states its Knyrkoi, I belive that its Plautini, am I right?

    I might have one this time!

    Fingers crossed, I think there's a real fossil in this mess! I accidentally chipped the part I think is a fossil, bone or shell maybe, with my tile nippers trying to chip away the bigger rocks in the conglomerate-- the nippers are for sherd crafts ONLY from now on! However, the pattern of lines in the part in question is as it was when I found it in the lower canal along the Delaware river near Pt. Pleasant, PA. My husband, King of Pareidolia, thinks it's a turtle. I'm not going to see things I can't hypothesize on, I'm here instead.
  15. Hi everyone, I have recently acquired this mosasaur jaw from an online auction. It is currently being shipped to me so I'll be able to take additional photos once it has arrived. The seller stated it was found in a phosphate mine in the Khouribga region in Morocco. It's 41 cm wide and 20 cm tall. I'd like to know if it's possible to identify the genus or species this jaw belongs to. I'm also wondering if it's possible to tell if it's an upper or lower jaw. Before I'd discovered this forum I made a post about it on Reddit. The people there told me the matrix is fake and there have been some small repairs made. What are the signs of the matrix being fake? And what are the signs it's been repaired/restored? Below are two more photos which will hopefully provide more information. Thanks a bunch!
  16. Hi all, I recently returned from spending a few days searching the beach of Tybee Island, Georgia, and found something I am unsure as to what it is. From reading online it looks like the age could be anywhere from Miocene to present. My initial gut is some sort of vertebra. Please let me know if any other photos or information would be helpful. Thank you!
  17. Hi all - having some trouble telling whether this is hadrosaurid or ceratopsian, perhaps due to the condition. All seller knows is Hell Creek Montana - no county. I'm not sure if that is so important here though as not looking for a precise ID. About 6.5 inches top to bottom. Appreciate any opinions on what it might be and any tips for telling the difference on future IDs. Thanks!
  18. Found this specimen when hunting just outside Danville, PA in a roadcut near the Susquehanna river. This is from the same visit as my previous post. The location is Trimmers Rock formation. My best guess is Leiorhynchus but I'm pretty stumped on this one.

    Trimmers Rock finds from Danville PA

    Found these specimens when hunting just outside Danville, PA in a roadcut near the Susquehanna river. The location is Trimmers Rock formation. I'm fairly certain that these are brachiopods but I haven't been able to ID them with any certainty. Mainly at that site we find beautiful Mucrospirifer specimens. However, these specimens appear larger and don't, to me, seem to be Mucrospifier. Most of the research I've done has yielded IDs that seem to be typically smaller than what I found. The first image shows the two parts together, the second shows them side by side with the top piece flipped over, the third shows the bottom piece and the fourth shows the top piece. My best guess is Leiorhynchus.

    Duck Creek Formation Shark Tooth

    Over the weekend I found this tiny (~3mm) shark tooth on a loose rock at a site exposing the Duck Creek Formation (and maybe the overlying Fort Worth Limestone). I have tried to match it with the teeth in The Collector's Guide to Fossil Sharks and Rays From the Cretaceous of Texas but the closest I have been able to get is Squalicorax sp. and even that doesn't seem to quite match and the book states that Squalicorax in the Texas Albian have only been found in the Weno and Pawpaw Formations. Unfortunately it only seems like the blade of the tooth is preserved as there is a bit of a lip where the blade hits matrix. I haven't attempted to prep it yet so there could be root there, but I doubt it. Does anyone have any thoughts on what shark this tooth might be from? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Tyrannosaur tooth?

    Hello,I am new to this forum. I recently acquired this tooth not that long ago,I was hoping it would be a Tyrannosaurid.Then I started to have some doubts looking at other papers.I understand you can’t identify Tyrannosaur Campanian teeth further down to Gorgosaurus, Daspletosaurus, and etc. at this size. I just hope to find out if it is a Tyrannosaurid or some other group of theropods like Dromeosaurs. My original idea is that it was too large to be a Dromeosaur from this formation. So I went with the Tyrannosaur ID but I have doubts. Info: Tyrannosaur tooth? with a partial Hadrosaur tooth Location:Judith River Formation, Hill County, Montana “1.05” inches long. There seems to be no Mesial serrations or they are worn down. Thanks for the help. I’ll of course add more photos if needed!😊

    What is this?

    As I was going through my collection yesterday night, I came across this strange fossil, I don't remember where i found it, but it is from Florida, probably around Jacksonville or Steinhatchee. Sorry for the little amount of detail, it's around 1 inch long. Any thoughts?

    Thililua longicollis tooth?

    Tooth measures .83 inches and wasfound in Asfla, Goulmima, Morocco at the Akrobou Formation. From what I’ve read this is either Thililua or Manemergus Anguirostris and the seller wasn’t 100% sure.

    What are these Shark teeth?

    Hello, I am wondering what these shark teeth are. I am a new collector and I don't remember where they came from. But if you know what they are it would be very nice to know. Thank you
