    Mosasaurus tooth

    This Mosasaurus tooth measures 8.3 inches from Morocco. Can you tell me what species it is?

  9. I was told this is a Curry (or currii) mosasaurus, but now I am having problems identifying it. What are your thoughts? I think it's a beautiful specimen, but I just wish I knew more about it. Any help?

    A Physicist's Collection

    While my prime focus is essentially learning how to accurately describe Nature in the precise language of mathematics, I've always been intrigued by natural history - it's actually what started me on the path to physics. The sort of interrogation that paleontology practices provoked me to think and question even further, down to the fundamental science which makes it all work. Collecting fossils has brought a large amount of enjoyment to my life, and is often a welcome distraction from what can sometimes be straining work. The knowledge that I accumulate along the way is also part of the fun. Here is my collection, which will always be a work-in-progress. There's still many things I haven't photographed yet, but I feel comfortable saying this is the majority. I don't have many big things, but I'm certainly pleased with the many small things I have so far. Links to albums: Dinosaurs Sharks North Sulphur River Post Oak Creek Permian Aguja Formation Harding Sandstone Devonian Galveston Fossils Miscellaneous Highlights / Personal Favorites: The ones underlined are linked to their respective fossil page in the Fossil Forum Collections, which has more information and photos. Infant Tyrannosaurus rex posterior tooth If I could keep only one fossil, it would be this one. It's from my favorite animal that has ever lived, and being from a young'un is just so darn cool. A true crowning jewel in my eyes. Juvenile Tyrannosaurus rex maxillary tooth Again, you can't go wrong with T. rex. It doesn't have the best preservation but regardless, there's a lot more to love. Tylosaurus proriger tooth (self-found) Undoubtedly my favorite find to-date. Finding fossils yourself adds that extra value to its place in your collection. I'll remember the moment I first saw it for a long time. Triceratops prorsus tooth Triceratops is another one of my favorite dinosaurs, I think we all grew up playing with toys of T. rex and Triceratops. Unique circumstances also allow for me to say it's Triceratops and not Torosaurus with some confidence. It's not perfect, but still a significant part of the collection. Avisaurus archibaldi tooth A bird tooth? Doesn't get much cooler or more uncommon. Dimetrodon cf. limbatus tooth I've always been drawn to "icons of life," since those are the ones we remember from childhood. Dimetrodon is definitely an icon, and I'm glad to have found one of these uncommon treasures (in micromatrix - it was a very nice surprise). Cretoxyrhina mantelli tooth One of my favorite shark species, the "ginsu" had sleek-looking teeth, ate mosasaurs and dinosaurs, and was overall a formidable animal worthy of admiration. Cretodus crassidens tooth (self-found) Another one of my favorite sharks. It's not big or complete, but the preservation is so rare for the locality (POC) - the gloss on the enamel is as if it fell out of the shark's mouth yesterday. Saurornitholestes langstoni tooth I'm currently working on growing the dinosaur component of my collection, and this is my first Dromaeosaurid. Dromaeosaur tooth (Hell Creek Fm.) My most recent addition (as of Sept. 4, 2021), and it's my best dinosaur tooth for sure. Unfortunately it will be labeled as only a Dromaeosaurid tooth for now, but it still is just a great tooth from a cool family of dinosaurs. Shark Tooth Riker Display I've got one riker that I've tried to squeeze as many teeth into as possible. I need to get a couple more, probably; there's a lot of teeth that deserve a riker, but are just lying around. I'll try to update this thread semi-regularly as I make acquisitions in the future.
  11. Praefectus

    REMPC M0006

    Tooth of the mosasaur Carinodens belgicus.
  12. Praefectus

    REMPC M0005

    From the album: Prae's Mosasaurs

    Carinodens belgicus. The corn-kernel toothed mosasaur.
  13. This was a gift from a client who knows I collect fossils. I’ve not seen something like this before. Thank you for any help.
  14. Praefectus

    REMPC M0004

    From the album: Prae's Mosasaurs

    Carinodens belgicus. The corn-kernel toothed mosasaur.
  15. Praefectus

    Carinodens belgicus

    Identified as Carinodens belgicus based on occlusal aspect ratio (labiolingual/mesiodistal <2.2).

    Small Mosasaur vertebra in situ

    From the album: North Sulphur River

    The only way I can find fossils - if they're right out in the open! This one conveniently perched itself on a rock.
  17. Dear Forum members, A few years ago I bought this piece from a fellow collector. The description mentioned that it is probably a Platecarpus sp. atlas and axis vertebrae, Niobrara Fm. Gove Co. Kansas. I think that this is acutally the supraoccipital, epioccipital, basisphenoid and several other skull parts. I do not know if this is indeed from a Platecarpus species? if so, which species could this be? I'd like to know whether this piece is Coniacian, Santonian or Campanian in age. Perhaps the preservation already can point in a direction. the fossils are all very flattened and embedded in a blue-grayish matrix. I think it certainly is the Smoky Hill Chalk, but perhaps this preservation hints to a certain member, layer or unit of that chalk? In any case, thank you in advance for your answers, Kind regards, Sander

    Post Oak Creek Oddities

    I usually don't post the trip to POC anymore but this time there were some oddities i wanted to confirm and or see if anyone knows what they are. I found the usual few ptychodus teeth as well as tons of broken shark teeth but also some more rare items. There is one small shark vertebrae, a piece of a fish vert, two broken ends of sawfish rostral teeth, a weird piece that looks like coral to me but also looks like it has teeth poking out of it, a large piece of mammoth enamel, and what I believe is a small mosasaur tooth. Pictures 2, 3, and 4 are the mosasaur tooth. I have it in my hand for scale and it is small but it looks exactly like ones i have seen posted from the North Sulphur River just smaller than most. Pictures 5 and 6 are of the coral looking thing. I could have sworn i saw something like this on the forum before but i have looked and can't find the post. Any ideas of what this is? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
  19. Here’s a vertebra fragment I found in Cretaceous Black Creek group sediments of North Carolina. It’s not turtle, and it doesn’t look like any crocodile vertebra I’ve ever seen. That would leave mosasaur, plesiosaur, or dinosaur. Personally I think it’s mosasaur, but I could be wrong and it may not even possible to ID further. Any thoughts?

    Mosasaur jaw

    Hello, Wondering about this specimen, listed as Eremiasaurus heterodontus 100 Million Years Old from Morocco. Jaw size is 3 inches long. Is it the right species and authentic? Thank you.
  21. Hi im new here! Are these Moroccan globidens rooted teeth and jaw fragment real? They are from The Khouribga Phosphates in Morocco Upper Cretaceous.
  22. Hey all, this Mosasaur tooth has popped up on my local auction site (I assume its Moroccan, the matrix certainly looks like it).... I don't really have any concerns about the tooth - it's got a missing tip, there may be a small repair at the bottom of the crown but all that is quite normal for these, the matrix is a concern though - is it real matrix or is it fabricated? To the right side of the tooth I can see some separation between the tooth and the matrix, the abrupt colour change in matrix on the right side gets my attention too. It's a fairly cheap tooth if the matrix is real.... The only information I have is this little gem - "Large fossil tooth." I asked for clear, detailed pics of the crown - showing size, tip and base of the crown and got the last 3 you see posted here
