I found this mandible last year, and have been trying to id it. I think it's squirrel, but I'm not sure. Difficult for me, since it's just a partial. If it is squirrel, genus/species ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! Glacial deposits, E Kansas, USA Has no teeth. Missing lower and rear section of mandible.

Hey all, can you help me ID some finds? Recently pulled some interesting bones from Big Brook. Pickings were a bit slim this round with typical wear of the location. See below. Jaw of some kind. Probably a fish like pachyrhizodus, but could it be a small mosasaur fragment? Next is a random chunk of bone. Thinking cretaceous as well, maybe reptile. This last one was a real headscratcher. Initially leaned toward pleistocene but now thinking cretaceous. Could it be a croc bone? Also bonus including the most majestic/biggest coprolite I ever found, and wow what a great specimen lemme tell you folks. Just my luck 🤣🤣🤣

How rare are real plesiosaurus jaws on the market ?
Brevicolis posted a topic in Questions & Answers
Hello, I wanted to ask how rare are Plesiosaurus jaws on the market? I've seen hundreds of real, fake, and composite Mosasaurus jaws from Morocco, but now I've seen a nice, big and real Plesiosaurus jaw with two teeth and no evidence of plaster. How rare is it to find a good one on the market? Thanks !- 9 replies

Spinosaurus jaw fake ?
Brevicolis posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello, i saw this Spinosaurus jaw on auction today. The tooth seems real, but the jaw looks like it would come straight up out of the mold, where the Sand was placed in. Found in Kemkem beds, morocco Sorry for the random floating fingers, i still dont know why sellers use their hand for measurement.- 4 replies

From the album: Fossils
One of my favorite Lee Creek finds, a nice seal jaw with 5 teeth. This must have been a fairly young individual because there is almost no wear on the teeth. -
I found this the other day in a Middle Cenomanian shell hash layer. It is about 30 mm long. It seems to be absent sharp teeth and instead has some type of crushing dentition. But, I'm not sure that it's even a jaw. It could be a fragmented fish fin or split spine. Does anyone have a good idea?

I do a lot of Internet searches. At one of the per_pay land hunting sites, these photos were posted in mid December 2023. I think it might be a Goniodelphis hudsoni jaw segment with 6 teeth. @Boesse Just sharing and asking for any comments and suggestions . To me, this is a fantastic find... Some comments from Bobby in this thread https://www.thefossilforum.com/topic/129508-iniid-tooth/ A PDF reference from Calvert Cliffs After years of never recognizing these ODD teeth, I have even found a couple: Do these match the ones in the Jaw... ?

Is that a real Abelisaurid jaw ?
Brevicolis posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
I saw this Abelisaurid jaw for sale today, the description says its real, but theres something wrong about it . The jaw looks like If its from a different specimen or found alone and then the teeth got placed in because of the weird gap in between the jaw and the teeth .- 3 replies

Recently, I found many fossilized bones, including a lower jaw, buried in clay next to a riverbank in Greece. I surfed the internet to get more information about that place and discovered it was very close to another site on the same river where Miocene bones were found (about 50 species, mainly mammals). I cleaned the jaw bone and then noticed that the teeth were missing, and I couldn't identify whether it was a carnivore or a herbivore. I would appreciate it if anyone could recognize any characteristics and maybe find what animal it belonged to. (In the known locality there were found rhinoceros, apes, turtles, hyenas, gazelles, lions, saber-toothed cats, other felines, various species of giraffes, bovines, bears, deer, horses, boars, primitive elephants and chalicotheres)

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!
