Hello, I recently visited the Isle of Wight and was lucky enough to find some beach rolled dinosaur bones. The majority have been heavily worn by the sea and are likely to be unidentifiable. I do recognise one of the bones as a tail vertebra (photos 2-5), however, and I wondered if someone with more experience on the forum would be kind enough to tell be which dinosaur it is likely to have belonged to (Iguanodon?)? I would also be grateful for any suggestions as to which part of the skeleton the larger bone might have belonged to in photos 6-9 (the same fos

Everyone is familiar with Dryosaurus, Iguanodon, Ouranosaurus, and Camptosaurus, but work by David Norman, Dave Weishampel, Peter Galton, and a few other dinosaurologists have helped reconstruct the early evolution of Iguanodontia, finding Rhabdodontidae the most primitive iguanodonts and grouping dryosaurids with more advanced iguanodonts in Dryomorpha, while applying the name Ankylopollexia to the clade formed by basal iguanodonts more derived than Dryosauridae. Therefore, I thought it would be appropriate to ask what your favorite primitive iguanodont is.

Hello, Finally found a decent Iggy vert. But if someone can give it a quick glance, that would be super. It matches other Iguanodon verts I've seen sold--but always the chance those sellers are mistaken. It is from Brook Bay. 11cm wide, 13 cm high, 8 cm long. Hope this checks out as Iguanodontid. But it also looks a bit like some plesiosaur verts I've seen. Thanks

Land near Bernissart: Chances of finding anything?
IguanodonGhost posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
Let me start by saying I don't know the first thing about fossils and the like, so I admit this question is probably a bit silly, but humour me please. I recently inherited some land near the Bernissart coal mine. (For those who don't know it, that spot is famous due to the discovery of over 40 Iguanodon skeletons in 1878 at a depth of 332m.) The land itself is situated less than 5 km away from the mine (as the crow flies) and is about 12-13 square km. The terrain isn't really worth much since it's classified/protected forest (not sure what the proper term is in English). -
Is this an Iguanodon jaw fossil? If so how rare is it?
-
Hello, Any thoughts on this, please? It looks like footcasts I've seen for sale before, but a second opinion--just in case--would be great. Partial footcast, I believe, showing the three toes. But if someone can tell if it is, and not just a foot shaped rock. It was found in Dorset from excavations along with a couple of others and was in a private museum for years. Which, if it was in a museum, makes me hopeful it's legit. Seller doesn't have a more narrowed-down location than Dorset, unfortunately. But looking online, prints and casts have been found there.

Wondering what people think of this? Being sold as Iguanodon vertebra from Hastings Bed formation. 16 x 12 x 8 It doesn't resemble other iguanodon verts I've seen for sale, so I'm wondering if might be a partial/just the top part of a vertebra, or another type of bone? Thanks for the help

Hello, I saw this for sale, now, am I right that this is not an Iguanodon jaw as it is being sold as? I had a compare of Iguanodon jaws and they tend to have the tooth ... holes? slots? Down the side with lots of little splitter teeth going through. Whereas this one seems like it has actual tooth sockets. So, am I right to be suspicious and that this is in fact a crocodile? Or am I wrong and it is an Iguanodon jaw? It is 5 inches long, broken and repaired. Found on Isle of Wight. Thanks

Labelled as possible polacanthus or young iguanodon but doesnt resemble the polacanthus cast I have. Described as "misshapen." Not the best photos, I know. Thanks

I’ve been sorting out some old fossils during the lockdown and just had a stand made for this big iguanodon vertebra. The stand was made by Friargate Forge in Preston. Before To this It’s hard to photo and prep was really difficult.

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!!

Possible Iguanodon tooth?
BonuFrailman posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hi all, Wondering what you guys can make of this piece that was sold on the auction site. Description says it was from The Wadhurst Clay Formation and not much else. No size, cross section or much of anything besides these two pictures. What are your thoughts? -

Last year there was a special edition of the "EOS"-magasine about the site of Bernisart in Belgium where 32 complete Iguanodon skeletons were found in 1878 along with crocodile, turtle and fish fossils. That specific magazine contained a poster of 2 drawings of that discovery one side with an Iggy skull and the other side with a crocodile fossil. I finaly took time to buy 2 frames to put those posters in

Hi Here is an interesting fossil. I purchased this as an unprepped, probable iguanodon toe bone. Now I’m well into the prep, I’m not so sure that it’s a tie bone but I think I know what it is. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks Nick

Hey everyone, I just purchased this Iguanodon Bone and I was wondering if the ID was correct or even if it is dinosaur bone. Apparently it was found in the Wealden Clay in the Isle of Wight, UK. The front side has been polished, unlike the back side. Thanks!

Mystery find in Bexhill fossil matrix (Weald Clay, UK), might this be fossilized skin?
ziggycardon posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi everyone, I need some help identifying something I found yesterday when I went through my newly acquired fossil matrix. Some information on the matrix, it came from the Hastings Bone beds, Weald Clay, Wealden of Bexhill, Wealden Supergroup, Bexhill, Sussex, UK (Cretaceous, Valanginian, 135 million years old) To me when I found it, it looked like skin, not like the crocodile scutes I am familiar with , but really more like skin. But since I am not really an expert on the matter is doesn't really matter what I think it might look like. I do know dinosaur fossils are common there an -
Hello my name is Tijn. I love Dinosaurs and am already building a decent collection. I already have most species from the Hell Creek Formation, Lance Formation and Judith River Formation.

I am not looking for anything big but small partial Bones and teeth are fine! Who can help me out? P.S. ill make some pictures of the material i am willing to trade later. Thanks in advance Tijn
