Here are some things I've had in the collection for a week or two but haven't ID'd yet. I'm starting to label my collection, so I'm trying to label some of the more obscure pieces as well 1) Water worn echinoid - from a creek in Austin, Texas on the Ozan Formation 2.) Piece of mammal enamel. Found on the same creek. I once found a piece of columbian mammoth enamel at this spot, and from that piece I'm going to guess that this is also mammoth. I'm basing that assumption off of the rough, textured backside of the enamel chip, which I was told to look for in Mammoth enamel piece in the fossil ID section. Can anyone confirm, add a pinch of salt, or deny? The wider chip on the left is my existing piece, the narrower one on the right is the one I'm trying to ID. Scale bar = 1 inch

The river has been receding daily, and I found this sacrum two days ago laying in sandy gravel that had just been exposed. Mostly Pleistocene fossils here. Due to its size, I thought it may be from one of the larger herbivore mammals. But due to wear, it's a little hard for me to tell how tapered or straight the original structure was, which seems pretty diagnostic in differentiating between the species. Several examples I've seen look similar, but I'm having a hard time finding any with sizes listed, so I'm a little lost. Can anyone shed some more light on this? Thank you! --Brandy

Hello all! The Brazos has finally started coming down and I was able to get out for a short trip today. I think this is a sloth tooth, but I’m looking for confirmation from the experts. The picture of a paramylodon mandible I’m comparing to is from Kocsis’ Vertebrate Fossils: A Neophyte’s Guide. @Harry Pristis @fossilus @Lorne Ledger

From the album: Brazos River Finds--August 2021
A small shard that did not look or feel like a typical rock. It seemed to have lines similar to those I've seen on mammoth tooth plate fragments.- 3 comments
