Hello everyone! I need some help on identification with a few fossils from Monmouth County, New Jersey. I believe the fossils in the first two groups of pictures are all Cretaceous Marine reptile bone but I was wondering if anyone could link any of them to any particular creature. The second is a vertebra I recently found; I was thinking possible Plesiosaur but was unsure. Thanks! -Frank .. ..

Hey everyone, I am wondering if anyone knows a professional microscope that can be used to photograph microfossils. I need to make pictures of fossils such as bonefish teeth, ptychotrygon teeth, etc, that are 2-3 mm big. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks for any help.

Greetings! I recently found this piece of fossil bone around the Big Brook area of Monmouth County, New Jersey. I believe it to be Cretaceous. A lot of bone in this area is scrappy and tough to identify but I'm hoping either the structure or features might be able to identify what this is from (or anything else about it). Thanks again! -Frank

Hi everyone, I am new to this great forum, and am seeking advice on 2 beaver (?) teeth I have found during my trips to Ramanessin over the past year. From the size of the larger tooth, it appears to be from a giant beaver- is this an example of Castoroides ohioensis from the Pleistocene epoch? Is it possible to tell if the smaller tooth is modern (based on size), or potentially from the Pleistocene (perhaps a juvenile)? Regardless, these teeth are so cool! Thank you for your help!

Hey guys, We found this tooth today sifting in the brook at Monmouth Co. It's pretty beat up, but we're hoping to get an ID on it! Thanks!

Hi, Wanted to confirm my suspicions that this is a Hoploparia Gabbi (arm/claw) in matrix. (approx 2") There also seems to be other parts of same among the included matrix. Thanks.

Hi, Found this in the Brook recently when the weather was cooperating. Saved it thinking it had characteristics of an ammonite fragment, but I'm not sure. Any suggestions? (Cretaceous of New Jersey - several views of same item). Thanks.

Hi, Cleaned a few things up today and I came across what maybe some kind of cartilage. Am I on the right track? Thanks

Hi, Found 4 items I need assistance with. * I believe the one smaller tooth fragment is an Enchodus. * I'm guessing one of the items is an Alveolus steinkern. * The larger item is a worn tooth of...? * And the last item (front and back) looks like... coprolite? Thanks for the help

Found this tooth on a gravel bank in Monmouth County, New Jersey at one of the Eocene/Miocene sites. Any ideas on who its from or what age?

I'm still working on going through my old finds from the Eocene aged Manasquan Formation of Monmouth County, New Jersey. I could definitely use some other eyes on these pieces. All of these were picked up from gravel bars of a stream and could be of Eocene or Pleistocene age. 1 - I think this is a bivalve with the beak at the top. The reverse picture below, I think, reinforces this. 2 - I'm not used to this texture. Perhaps glacially deposited, but, is it just geologic? 3 - Similar texture to #2. The easy call would be a shell impression 4 - Again, similar texture to #2 and #3. Close up picture below. 5 - Perhaps just a concretion or stone, but I keep seeing bivalve. 6 - Coral? Bivalve? Nothing? This is the normal Manasquan Formation texture for steinkerns. See other views below. This is the reverse side of each piece. Close up of #4 Other views of #6.
