Hello! I had a great time at Ramanessin with the crew from DVPS. After everyone left, I went above the spillway and spent a couple hours sifting there. Eventually, I found this tooth! It's smaller and more intact than the mosasaur teeth I've seen online, but there are pretty clear enamel lines and cutting edges that cause me to lean away from IDing it as crocodilian. Would someone ID it for me please? Thank you!

RobFallen posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Thoughts on these please guys, quite like them but how genuine are they? also which would be the best to own if you only had space in your collection for one of them? #1 Eremiasaurus heterodontus Size of Jaw = 13.3 cm (5.25 inches) long by 2.5 cm (1 inch) wide #2 Halisaurus arambourgi Size of Jaw = 11.4 cm (4.5 inches) long. Teeth = 2 cm to 2.5 cm (1 inch) approximately thanks -

I went on this hunt about two weeks ago, but only am getting around to posting it now. It was a great day at a new spot close to my usual stomping grounds. I was hunting under a bridge the week before when someone walking the path next to it asked if I had any luck - his name was Leo, and we actually recognized each other as both of us have posted about some of our Austin finds on reddit before. (PS - pardon the picture quality, most of these are screenshots from video) He invited me to hunt with him at a spot of his on the same creek close by sometime. I wa

An assortment of interesting finds from our hunt today. This was in the late cretaceous Ozan formation (also called the Lower Taylor Marl, I believe) around the Austin area, in central Texas. I'd like confirmation or correction on some ID's 1) I'm thinking Mosasaur tooth for this one, but since it's small enough to maybe be fish, I'm checking anyway. If measurements end up being important for any of these, I can provide them. 2.) I'm thinking Cretolamna for this shark tooth, but it looks like the cusps have two peaks, which is throwing me off. Any thoughts?

Hi. Still waiting to get out and hunt. In the meantime I threw this together. It was inspired by other displays I saw on the forum. Enjoy for now can’t wait to be in a creek!

I took a one hour detour on my way home from work today and hit a tiny secluded creek that I hunt on occasion. I only had 30 minutes to hunt but I walked up on nice little mosasaur tooth and a killer hundred year old whiskey bottle in great shape.

Identification: Mosasaur teeth can be difficult to assign to a species. However, given the size of the tooth, it must be from T. proriger - the only Mosasaur in the formation large enough to produce this tooth. Notes: Shows feeding wear (pictured) with mostly complete enamel. Uncommon find for this formation/locality. Identifiers: This identification is supported by Michael J. Polcyn (researcher specializing in the evolution of Mosasaurs) of Southern Methodist University, Dallas, TX, USA. Citation: COPE, EDWARD D., 1869, Remarks on Holops brevispinus, Ornitho

Spent the day on the creek with my son today. Could not have ordered up a better day to go. Spring time came to Texas this week and even had to break out the sunscreen. Found some nice teeth and the usual brokes. My son found a beautiful Ctretodus lateral tooth and a really nice S. raphiodon lateral and I to my surprise, found the first mosasaur tooth I have ever found at Post Oak.

What specific species of Mosasaur does this tooth come from?
Kaiju Slayer333 posted a topic in Fossil ID
Currently my fossil collection is made of mostly many smaller sea fossils (if anyone wants to see those as well just ask) My biggest part of it is this Mosasaur tooth that I got in Portuagal. Apparently and not too surprisingly, it was found in Morocco and I'm just wondering if anyone knows the possible species of Mosasaur this could be. Plus one other question. I've been looking for fossils specifically Dino fossils and UKGE seems like a good place to get them but I wanted to ask if the website is safe and trustworthy so, is it? And my final word on the Mosasaur, if you want me to show m
