Anyway to confirm that this is an adult Pachycephalosaur femur? Niobrara county Wyoming Lance formation
-
Hi, what are the thoughts on this? It looks like other frill sections I see online. But I would like another,m more knowledgeable opinion in case it is something else. Lance Formation. Lusk, Niobrara County, Wyoming, 32 x 20 x 3 cm. thanks very much

Hi All, Having gotten an idea of what the outer texture of Nodosaurid osteoderms looks like from my last post, I'm wondering if this looks like one. It's from the Lance formation of Weston co, WY. I think there are two finished sides there and two cracked sides. Thanks!!

Hi all, I thought I see if there were any hunches on these three bones I found in Lance formation sediment from Weston, WY. I'm posting them together because they all were pieces I thought at one point were frill/osteoderm/surface bone because of a veiny side, but then the opposite side has cavities that seem like skull or something. Please let me know if they resemble anything to you. Thanks! 1 2 3

Hi all, Do you think this thing from the Lance formation in Weston co, Wyoming could be a proximal section of young Triceratops brow horn? Thanks!!
-
Hi all, This chunk is from the Lance of Weston county, WY. Is there enough here to conclude that this is a chunk of vertebra centrum? Is is spongy enough to conclude it's theropod? If so, is it big enough to conclude it's from T Rex?

Hello everyone, A Tyrannosaur tooth here, it measures 1.1 inches, and is from Wyoming (Weston County) Lance Formation. If anyone can ID it as Nano or T-Rex, that would be much appreciated. There some very slight serrations, which I have zoomed in on. Thanks for the help.

How variable are Hell Creek/Lance Formation crocodilian teeth?
Jurassicbro238 posted a topic in Questions & Answers
I've had these crocodilian teeth from Niobrara County in the Lance Formation for a while now, but I'm not sure how if its possible to ID them beyond "Crocodilian tooth." I've generally heard that the "sharp" morphology are Borealosuchus teeth and the short bulbous teeth are Brachychampsa. Is that a safe rule to follow? I've also noticed that there are some slight differences in the teeth I have (hopefully the pics make it visibile). They're small, but the two on the lower left have noticeable raised striations (not sure what to call it). However, the one on the lower right and on the top are smooth. Is this just a difference in preservation? Identifiable traits to the species level? Positional characteristics? Individual variation? I'd like to hear any opinions on this. Thank you for your time

Hello! I was wondering if this is a soft tissue impression. The specimen is about 2cm long and I think the rock around it is sandstone. It was found in Niobrara County, Wyoming in the Lance Formation. I would like to know what you all think!

Cracking open Heterodonty in T Rex for Joseph's tooth was fun enough that I wanted to take a look at this tooth and see if you have any suspicions on position @Troodon. From the Lance formation in Weston, WY CH: About 45-46mm CBL: 21.4mm CBW: 15.5mm Mesial Serration Density: 1.8/mm Distal Serration Density: 1.9/mm Thanks!!

Hi all, Here are some of the last from the mystery box from Weston co, WY, Lance fm. They look like a couple of herbivore teeth and a few carnivore teeth fragments to me. Possibly robust enough to have to come from T Rex, if so...? Thanks, 1a 1b 1c 1d 1e 1f 2a 2b 2c 2d 2e 2f 3a 3b 3c 3d 4a 4b 4c 4d 4e 4f 5a 5b 5c 5d

How about these? They're also from Weston co Wyoming (granted I bought these two, whereas I dug the previous-posted tooth and non-eggshell). Since we don't have anything from Lance to compare to, I suppose I'm really asking: (1) is it egg shell? (2) is it dino? (3) have you seen anything like it from JRf or HCf?
-
Once more to squeeze in. This too is from the Lance formation, Weston co, WY. It's about 14mm X 7mm X 2mm. Is it an egg shell? Thanks,

Hi All, Curious to know if this hunk of chunkasaurus from Weston county Lance formation can be place in a family. Also, I marked a set of holes along the top to see if you think they could be tooth marks.
-
It's hard to capture the beauty of this thing in pictures. Could it be an egg? Just a fascinating coprolite that shows its contents?
-
This thing looks pretty bizarre. It's very dense, and has no tongue-sticking, so I think it's just a strange looking, bad-tasting rock. Every time my son or I tried to see if there was any tongue-sticking on the small black section, we were running to the kitchen to wash our mouths out--very sour, metallic taste. I'm worried we tasted dino poop. Or is this just some rock that should have stayed in the ground?

Hi all, My son and I recently got the incredible opportunity to live the dream and break into rocks from the Lance formation in Wyoming ourselves in the comfort of our own living room--thanks to a special member on TFF ! We came across this Chunkosaurus piece last night. If there's enough material here to ID (even just the family it comes from), we'd be thrilled to hear your thoughts. In my novice eyes, it looks like it may be a chunk from the perimeter of a Triceratops frill. One typically expects to see the curvature at the perimeter of the frill having the opposite orientation (i.e., convex vs concave?), but I included a picture of a frill right below and circled some examples that support the possibility of this ID. Thanks!

Hello, here is a new type of claw for me. I found it a couple days ago in a Lance Fmtn site I have in Wyoming. This claw is 1" long. It has an unusual 'twist' to it in that the left side drops down if you are looking at the point view. Almost like it is 'torqued'. Please let me know if you have any info. Is it turtle, crocodile, or dinosaur related? Thx!

I'd gotten some more lance fm matrix and had found this. It had at first looked like a rib fragment but it has this weird texture on the bottom and the sides. Just wondering what you guys think. Thanks for any help. It's from the Lance Fm of Weston Co. Wyoming.

From the album: Hell Creek / Lance Formations
Meniscoessus was a large multituberculate mammal (large by Cretaceous standards), identified by the crescent-shaped/grooved cusps. Looks like a right M2 (right 2nd lower molar). -
From the album: Hell Creek / Lance Formations
For most collectors, it's more affordable to have a piece of a T. rex tooth if you just want it represented. This one is clearly T. rex: it's theropod with serrations (this one has the basalmost portion of the mesial carina), very thick, and clearly would've had a large circumference. Note also the large angle made by the curvature of the tooth at the carina (not Nanotyrannus which have narrow, blade-like teeth). -
I'd found this bone in some lance fm matrix. It's straight and has a weird blob at the end, so it's kind of matchstick shaped. Was thinking it could be a fibula or an ulna. Thanks for any help.
-
I'd found this bone looking thing in some lance fm matrix. I can tell it's bone because the bottom has the bone texture. It seems to maybe be trike frill, ankylosaur osteoderm, or something pachy. Location is weston county, WY. It's about an inch long. Thanks for any help.
