Hi all, here are more pliosaur teeth questions from me.. these are from the Asfla Goulmima Morroco Cretaceouds turonien. I'm fairly certain the stubby one is pliosaur but seeing as I've been mistaken more than once, I'd like to ask here. I think the slender is plesiosaur, but again.. I'd like for people with more knowledge than me to pitch in

I have been advised these teeth belong to an early Pliosaur called Rhomaleosaurus. They come from Lyme Regis. What do people here think? Do they seem good?

Here is a 7 cm long tooth, claimed to be pliosaur. What do people here think? It's from Morocco, unsure where specifically. @pachy-pleuro-whatnot-odon

Pliosaur & Mosasaur Tooth Collection from Central Texas
LSCHNELLE posted a topic in Member Collections
Attached are pictures of my collection of four isolated teeth from Travis County, Texas with limited identifications. I am not an expert on pliosaurs, plesiosaurs, or mosasaurs. I just know fairly accurately in which member of a specific formation I found these teeth. All of these were located in or near a shell hash layer associated with oyster fragments, Ptychodus, or other regular shark's teeth. (1) 10/2/2017 - Upper South Bosque - ~91 mya - first picture (as cleaned). (2) 6/15/2018 - Lower Bouldin Flags - ~95 Mya - first picture (as found), second p- 32 replies

Pliosaur tooth, or ophthalmosaurid ichthyosaur (Stary Oskol)
pachy-pleuro-whatnot-odon posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi all, First off, this is not my fossil (though I own a large crow of similar morphology), but one I recently bumped into and found particularly curious. Why? Because it's morphology seems to contradict itself. Described as a Polyptychodon interuptus (no longer considered a valid genus; Madzia [2016]) from the Late Jurassic Volga Beds (?) of Stary Oskol, the tooth appears to have enamel folds consistent with what one might expect from an ophthalmosaurid ichthyosaur, such as Platypterygius sp.. The root, however, is smooth and round, with a hollow base, which, unlike the rectangula- 13 replies

British marine reptile teeth, pliosaur? Ichthyosaur? Croc?
Per Christian posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi everyone I came across this box of marine reptile teeth from: Age 200 million/Rhaetic bone bed. I don't have the measurements of the fossils unfortunately, but do anyone see plesiosaur and ichthyosaur teeth here? I'd love it if there's pliosaur but probably not.. -
Hi everyone I came across these teeth on our favorite site. It's listed as plesiosaur and ichthyosaur, but could the plesiosaur be a pliosaur tooth? The ridges are quite pronounced.. The teeth in this set were both found in the Seversk Sandstone in Belgorod, Kursk, Russia

Hi all, I've been offered these two teeth that I've been told are pliosaur teeth. They're from Morocco. They must have a fair amount of repairs due to the glued matrix and cracks etc, but do they look legitimate? The shape looks like pliosaur to me

Hi, I wanted to ask about this marine reptile tooth from the Oxford Clay in England. The seller has listed it as a Pliosaur tooth belonging to the species Simolestes Vorax, and I wanted to check the id. Thanks in advance!

Hi all, I've had the below piece in my collection for a number of years now, having acquired it thinking it was a juvenile plesiosaur propodial. It comes from the Oxford Clay of Peterborough and is of Callovian Jurassic age. However, when recently doing some research towards answering another question on TFF, I realised that - even though there's some plastic deformation going on - it doesn't quite look like the juvenile plesiosaur propodial I have from the rhaetic at Aust, nor does it look like a plesiosaur propodial
