This tooth was labeled as Orodus but I wanted to get some other opinions. I see quite a few different Paleozoic tooth morphologies that are called Orodus which can be a little confusing. I am not saying the Orodus ID is incorrect but I see some things that remind me of a Hybodontiformes tooth. Burlington Limestone Biggsville Quarry Biggsville, Illinois The tooth measures 5mm across.

From the album: Chondrichthyan Teeth From The Pennsylvanian Period
While there is no exact identification I assume this tooth to belong to the genus Orodus but it is highly likely that it belongs to some sort of Eugeneodontiform rather than being from Orodus but so far I have no exact identification. I also have another tooth in this collection that is similar in size.-

Location: Missouri Time period: Pennsylvanian Formation: Rockpile containing rocks from the Iola Limestone Formation Hello! I came across this specimen in the dirt surrounding a rockpile where I usually hunt for muncie creek phosphatic nodules and was wondering if anyone could help me get an exact ID on this specimen. I have found one tooth similar to this last year that I had assumed belong to Orodus. backside of this tooth I will note it has similarities to another tooth I have that might belong to an Orodus, those similarities being the size being almost identical with the root having the same features along with the similar overall shape. tooth by itself from several months ago.

From the album: Chondrichthyan Teeth From The Pennsylvanian Period
I assumed due to there being multiple guesses on the fossilId section and this one best fit the description It is roughly 7mm in size It could also be a juvenile of a Petalodont but that is my theory-

Receiving this gorgeous but mysterious specimen is from Upper Pennsylvanian limestone dated around 290-300 million years ago from somewhere around Kansas City. Looks like a tooth to me and my best guess would be orodus? But I have little experience with Pennsylvanian shark teeth in general and especially from this area, also cannot find a comparison elsewhere online. Any help will be appreciated.

This tooth came from the Finis Shale at Jacksboro Texas. That's in the Virgil Series, Cisco Group, Graham Formation, Late Pennsylvanian. It seems large for Orodus variabilis and has some extra odd protrusions on the lingual side that don't match the smaller ones I usually find. Is there another species we can find there or is this normal? @JGM

I came across this nice little Mississippian shark or shark-like fish tooth. The information provided by the seller is Orodus sp. St. Louis limestone Formation. Cloverdale Quarry, Cloverdale, Indiana. my question to the Paleozoic shark experts on the forum would be is this an Orodus tooth? I am far from an expert but this looks a bit like a Caseodus to me. I know Orodus teeth have several forms but this did not look like one to me. Any information or help would be awesome !!
