Weather was cold and windy yesterday, but sunny and calmer down on the Brazos River in southeast Texas. Sandy gravel matrix. I always hate to get my hopes up too early in the game, but I think I may have found my first 3 toed horse tooth. I looked at Hulbert's Fossil Vertebrates of Florida book. Photograph D on pg. 292 is a right m1 or m2 from nannippus aztecus. It appears pretty similar, but I'm not sure about size. Nannippus Aztecus would have been in Texas from late Miocene to Pliocene, so region would fit. And I think @garyc has found a nannippus on the Brazos befo

Found this tooth last week on the Peace River, FL. At first glance I thought incisor - Equus. Upon getting it home and looking closer I didn't know if in fact an Equus incisor could be as small as this as it measures 22 mm in length and 9 mm across the crown. The crown surface is worn so that while I thought there is a hint of what I would expect from the crown of a horse incisor, I just can't be sure. With that, I am submitting it to the knowledgable folks here who may be able to provide an ID. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
