These teeth are generally identified as Cretalamna appendiculata but should probably be Cretalamna sp.© bthemoose

I’m a little late to getting around to posting this but it’s been a hectic week so far at work. I kayaked back out along the Calvert Cliffs last weekend and the weather was absolutely beautiful, getting close to if not over 80 degrees for the last weekend of October. I got on the water early to watch the sun rise and then started hunting. The nice weather definitely brought some more hunters out, with other kayakers, boaters, and jet skiers coming to the beach soon after landing. As expected it was a little slow but I still managed a nice little megalodon measuring 1.46” and a nice hastalis measuring 1.43”. As I was slowly checking out the shell line on the way back I found two micro megs, and a few dolphin teeth to finish the day off. All in all a great trip, love finding teeth and kayaking along the cliffs on a calm morning is just peaceful. See y’all next time!

Recently I took a trip to a new spot in the Maastrichtian of Maryland. I did not manage to recover too much vertebrate material, though I have been quite intrigued by one piece that I collected. The main question regarding this piece is whether it is bone or whether it is simply a suggestively shaped rock. If it does turn out to be bone, would it be possible to determine what it may have come from? The main marine reptiles that are recovered from these deposits are mosasaur and marine turtle. A few photographs of the specimen in question. If better photographs are needed/photographs from a different angle, I would be more than happy to attach some to this thread. Thanks in advance for all suggestions and opinions!

I found this one at Calvert Cliffs. It seems to be fossil, but it’s not as weighty as other bones I’ve found. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
