I was hunting a month or so back at a site that has some pre_Equus horse teeth, and a very few of the fossil have a light tan coloration. Sometimes the surrounding rock has a similar color. and then this 2.3 inch find: Originally, I thought it was concretion, but have changed my mind. Let me provide some more photos and encourage your input and insights.

Found in creek in Texas. I pulled mastodon tusks and molars out of the same creek. Could it be mammoth fragment or tapir jaw fragment? Also please note fossils here do not turn black like Florida, but stay white with blue inclusions.

Last couple of days, I have been searching the internet, for Hipparion horse teeth, Beaver Molars, and small whale teeth driven by TFF threads to answer questions in my mind or help to identify a fossil. I was doing a google search for "Whale tooth Florida jaw" and triggered this fossil, supposedly found in the Miocene of South Carolina !!!! That is close to Florida so we might have the same fossil whales here !!! and @Boesse might help me to identify it. The final aspect is that it was not all that pricey, and since I only have 2 pieces of toothed whale jaw in my collection, snapped it up.

Hello, I am curious about this piece of what i think may be a jaw fragment. Found on James River in Virginia within Yorktown Formation. There appears to be one intact tooth and a portion of an adjacent tooth that has broken, leaving a cavity. Measures approx 2 x 1.5 x 1 cm. (The background grid is in centimeters) Appreciate any/all feedback. Thanks!!

Hey all! i have an unprepared Brontotherium Jaw section up for trade. It’s from the Badlands, South Dakota, United States. It’s a really cool piece that displays well, I’m just looking for something new for my collection. I would be interested in trading for Dire Wolf teeth, an Eremotherium Tooth, other giant ground sloth teeth/claw cores. PM me offers or any questions. Thanks!

Found this cool little jaw fragment last week on the Potomac in a section that has mostly Aquia paleocene exposure but also has some eocene and miocene. There is a very tiny unerupted tooth in one of the sockets which I hope will help with ID. It's hard to get a good image but the tooth looks flattish with a rounded tip, not conical and not pointy. Any ideas?

Lower part of a chondrichthyan Jaw in phosphatic nodule? (Missouri)
Samurai posted a topic in Fossil ID
Location: Missouri Time period: Pennsylvanian Formation: Muncie Creek Shale (Right side of nodule) (left side) -
Guess who's back I have this piece of I think a left lower jaw from either a crocodile or dinosaur. If I look at the toothsockets they are for round teeth, so crocodile (looking at the size Elosuchus?) or spinosaurid. I am leaning more towards a crocodil. Size: 18x6x2cm Thank you

Hi everyone, I was at the Big Brook Preserve lately, and in amongst the usual batch of oysters, shark teeth, belemnites, and an ammonite fragment I found one piece which I can't quite identify. I initially thought it was a piece of Enchodus jaw, but when I got it into better light I wasn't so sure. It seems to have definite bone texture to it and I am almost certain it's fossilized, but it doesn't quite match with anything I can think of. (Sorry if the pictures aren't great, I tried the best I could with my desk lamp.) Thanks!

After taking a little time off from hunting due to a new job and holidays I decided to hit the North Sulphur River with a friend. We had a great day. I love the Tylosaur scapula with shark bites. We found a large Xiphactinus washing out and ended up with one left maxilla and three verts from it. We will go back and check that area again.

Hello! I see this jaw with teeth from Ouled Abdoun Basin (Morocco). I read about the new Ajnabia descovered this year. What do you think? Real dinosaur or only a fish? Thank you so much.

Found a bunch of knowns, and then these 2 that have some question. 1st up is a Peccary or modern pig p4 premolar, very worn. A helper from Harry on Sus Scrofa AND a photo of a Peccary p4 from PrehistoricFlorida . Which is this fossil and how differentiated ? Thanks Here is the 2nd.. Looks like a jaw. Maxilla ? Alveoli? Dolphin ? Is this my imagination? Just a rock?

Hello, Is anyone able to narrow this down more specifically? It is listed as end of a Mosasaur jaw---but if someone can narrow it down to a species, that would be great. No teeth unfortunately. I'd quite like it, if a species can possibly be narrowed down becaause then I can display it alongside the teeth. I got one from the same seller, with a tooth that was ID'd on here as Prognathodon which looks similar. But, I figure it best to post it in case this is from a different, similar species. it's from Khouribga, Morocco. Height = 4cm, length=8 cm, width=5cm Thanks

Mongolian carnivore tooth with jaw fragment. Is this a croc or theorpod?
-Andy- posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi all, I had posted about this tooth years ago and the conclusion back then was that its preservation was too poor for any proper ID. I am hoping that with new information we can at least determine if this is a crocodile or theropod. I discovered today that this tooth preserved some serrations First up, this tooth was acquired from a source with many Mongolian material. He called this an Alioramus tooth but I am not comfortable calling it that yet Secondly, a museum curator (who has handled Mongolian material) examined this tooth in person. He concluded this tooth was indeed Mongolian but he could only say it's a carnivore. Unfortunately, we are unable to determine which part of Mongolia it came from. The crown is 40 mm in a straight line. I have quite a number of croc and theropod teeth and this tooth feels much closer to a theropod than a crocodile both in terms of morphology and size. However, I am not unbiased in my ID, and the shallow jaw fragment is throwing me off. Assuming this is indeed from a tyrannosaur, I'd expect the jaw to be much deeper. Please let me know your honest thoughts, thank you Comparison of tooth to a cf. Daspletosaurus from the Judith River Formation

Good afternoon I found this jaw and tooth fragment along a creek in Central Texas which has produced artifacts from late Pleistocene deposits. I was thinking this was part of a dire wolf jaw I was hoping to get identification thank you

Found this odd 9" long jaw-like fossilized bone in a small creek within the Yorktown formation in Virginia between the York River and I-64. It is atypical of the Baleen Whale and Ice Age mammal bones I have found in the same area. Any help with identifying this specimen would be appreciated.

I've found a number of fossilized jaws on this beach that I have no clue of the animal they came from. Hopefully someone here will be able to tell me. We also find many bones of probably bison that hasn't fossilized. So here are a few pics -------- This is what the beach looks like.

I found this jaw on the Brazos River a couple of years ago and figured that it is just from a modern dog. Just thought I would try to get a confirmation. I would hate to discount the idea that it is something more interesting like Pleistocene coyote or wolf. It is actually pretty well mineralized. The cancellous bone is hard and not spongy like other modern bones that I find. The carnassial measures 22.2mm x 11.9mm

My 29th trip to Big Brook and I decided to try to get there by an unnamed tributary I found on a map. Got to explore an area with little evidence of usage as shown by the paucity of glass and plastic. Overgrown and thorny and I think I saw my first bear footprint (photo below). Posted below are photos of what I think is an Enchodus jaw and two teeth and also what I think is a partial crab claw but much bigger than any I’ve found before. I also think I found my first arrowhead. Any info greatly appreciated.

In a late cretaceous marine formation I found two little pieces of jaw. I would like help in id if possible. One is maybe 2.5 cm in length and the other 3 cm, both have the ragged texture of almost everything from this site. I wonder (hope) if the upper is croc, and if the lower is a small mosasaur. It does not match the typical fish jaws that I find because of the sharp curve to the teeth. Help and ideas will be appreciated.

Sorry about my not sweet picture skills. found Judith river formation of Montana - milk river. obviously a chunk of jaw, but we usually just find little croc jaws. This one is bigger, and the sockets just seemed theropod to me right off the bat. Grabbed a couple tyrannosaur teeth from my daughters display in her room and they fit like a glove. Super scientific, I know - but thoughts? thansk!

Hi all, found this partial jaw a couple of weeks ago and I'm a little lost on what animal species this could have belonged to. If it is a terrestrial mammal it would be pleistocene in age, if it's a cetatean it could be miocene-pliocene in age. I am leaning towards terrestrial origin though. Anybody recognise this jaw fragment?

Hello everyone! I just acquired this piece but the only thing I know is that it's a mosasaur from morocco and it shows the lower jaw and the pterigoid teeth from the upper jaw. Can any mosasaur experts here help me identify the species? I'm thinking of prognathodon maybe?. Also as far as I know it's not fake or composite but would be great if you could confirm it. Thank you very much for your help, very appreciated! Greetings from Spain.
