Attempt 2 for organizing queries regarding Peace River fossils from 26/12/23. I've set the fossil on 1cm grid paper, included a 1cm ruler underneath (or is the mm side better? my ruler has both, so easy change), and used my husband's newer iPhone to try to get a sharper image. I realize some bits are still blurry/dark and have tried to play with filters to get them as sharp as possible. Please let me know if this is heading in the right direction. These are all images of the same fossil, so I haven't done any numbering/labeling on the images. I believe this is an alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) osteoderm due to the deep 'pock' marks. Confirmation or correction would be much appreciated! Cheers!

Greetings! First post, so please do let me know if I'm not following any formatting conventions etc. correctly. My family recently went on a fossil hunt with Fossil Recovery Exploration on the Peace River in Arcadia, Florida. We had a great time with our guide, Sean; he was super patient, hard-working, friendly and knowledgeable. We got upgraded to an air-boat ride due to weather conditions and because of some other factors ended up being out on the water for almost 5 hours! My four year-old daughter was a trooper, but by the end when it was time for identification she was d.o.n.e. Sean went through with us quickly and got rid of the rocks we had mixed in the bucket, but didn't have time to closely identify every single object, particularly the more obscure pieces. So, I'm posting here in the hope that I can get some help in identifying my "TBD pile"! I have an iPhone 10, so did my best with the photos. My husband has a macro lens on his good camera, so can try that if some photos are too unclear. I will give my thoughts based on what else we found and identified, some guide sheets I've looked at, and what I've come across trawling through posts on the forum. 1: base of ice age deer antler (due to the three rounded protrusions in a line) 2.1-2.8: Shells? I found some whole bivalves that were definitely shells (confirmed by guide), but these look a bit different, especially given that the underside/inside isn't concave as I would expect a shell to be. Could they be bony fish parts? 3.1: toe bone (due to the 'pinched' part at the top)? 3.2-3.3: no idea 3.4: ear bone (due to the swirls visible in picture 3B)? 4.1-4.2: newer bone? these pieces are more of an amber-ish colour and 4.1 is very brittle. 4.3: large ray mouth plate (due to pronounced ridges)? But in photo 4D there is clearly spongy bone...so I don't know what impact that has on whether or not it's a ray mouth plate. 4.4: bony fish vertebra (due to circular shape visible in picture 4C)? 5: bony fish skin (due to many little bumps; I saw a much large piece with similar bumps that had been identified, but not sure if it's possible to tell from as small a piece as I have) 6.1: vertebra (due to inverted heart shaped noted in photo 6E) 6.2-6.3: broken teeth with root (they don't have the same enamel layers that I see on my confirmed horse/camelid/mastodon-mammoth teeth, though) 7.1-7.2: rocks that our guide missed? 7.2 has a a very smooth curve, though; maybe something man-made? 7.3: snail/worm trace? Thank you for reading my post!

Hello All, I am still fairly new to fossil collecting. I live here in South Florida and have been doing most of my fossil hunting on the Peace River. We have been using a sifter we picked up from Shark Frenzy in Venice Florida, which works great on the beach but less great on the river. I have been seeing awesome sand scoops and modified mud shovels here on the forum. I know lots of people on here seem to modify the items themselves, however that isn't something I have the experience or tools for. Can anyone tell me where I might be able to purchase or have one made?I attached a picture of one we used with a guide on the river, we loved the double handles and the reinforced scoop ,and would love to find something like this or have it made. Thank you all for your time.

Hello — I would love your help IDing these shark teeth: #1 — I think it symphyseal, perhaps P contortus. 10mm in length. From the Peace River of FL. #2 — Rather unsure about this one. Seems somewhat like a lemon shark tooth, but if I had to guess I would go with I retroflexus. 12mm long. From the Peace River of FL. #3 — New to me. Just under 3mm in length. From a creek in Summerville, SC. If I had to guess I would say a member of the Triakidae (hound sharks). As I understand it, this would be fairly unusual for SC, but this clade is attested for this locality in the literature https://bioone.org/journals/acta-palaeontologica-polonica/volume-53/issue-3/app.2008.0306/New-Fossil-Triakid-Sharks-from-the-Early-Eocene-of-Prémontré/10.4202/app.2008.0306.full. No idea about species or genus! Cheers!

I am going to be in Florida for the next few weeks. I was wondering if any Forum members might want to meet up to do some collecting. I have collected the Peace a few times but do not have that much experience with river collecting. Feel free to reach out to me if interested. I should have access to a few kayaks.

Hi all! I'm back with what I hope is a helpful video for an ID. The guide thought it was a mastodon tooth. My apologies - I only have an imperial ruler and do not own a printer to print a metric ruler. THERE ARE VIDEOS FOR ADDITIONAL UNIDENTIFIED FOSSILS IN THE COMMENTS. Tooth #1 Tooth1.mp4

One video is in this initial post, several more are below as comments! I was struggling with pictures (IDs were all over the place and I don't have the experience to know enough about perspectives to capture nuanced features), so I just took videos of them all. If there's a surface you'd like a better view of, I'm happy to take another picture or video. Please specify which would be more helpful. I've also thrown the tour guide's ID in when available. #1 NoIdea.mp4

Hi all. Another hopeful ID video from a fossil I found in the Peace River. My apologies - I only have an imperial ruler and do not own a computer to print a metric ruler. Tooth2.mp4

Peace River - Wauchula, FL (Misc. + bonus tiny Jacksonville Beach, FL shark teeth)
Hurricanerin posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi friends! I recently took a trek to the Peace River and went in in Wauchla, FL. I would love some help identifying what I found. I still need to photograph all of the shark teeth I found in the Peace River, but there is a pic of a few teeny tiny teeth I found in Jacksonville Beach, FL. I numbered things since there are so many. Thank you so much for your help! .
