From the album: Post Oak Creek
P. atcoensis was a rare species of durophagous shark that lived during the Late Cretaceous. Its contemporary P. whipplei was far more abundant and tended to have a higher, bullet-shaped crown; this disparity in morpholgy suggests they may have preyed on different things. From Shawn Hamm's thesis: "Diagnosis. Tooth Crown high and rounded, oriented 90° to the margin area in the medial files; crown crossed by six to eight thick, chevron-shaped parallel ridges; lateral files have moderately high crowns with four to five parallel ridges; posterior teeth are low crowned with two to three ridg-

When I initially found this I was hoping it was Mosasaurid, however upon some reading, I decided it's more likely to be a sister group squamate. In particular, the labial sulcus convinced me it is probably C. crassidens (see Caldwell 1999). It is however much larger than any Coniasaurus teeth I've seen published.-

The shell of a "foram" (test). It looks like a snail or ammonite, but is actually a marine protist (only found in the oceans).-

Rhinobatos teeth are so small they make me angry Here you see a dozen guitar fish teeth sitting on the face of a dime! The largest is a bit under 1 mm tall. R. incertus has a pointed crown, R. caseiri has no point.-

I'm pretty sure these are S. raphiodon teeth. They are much smaller than S. texanus with a narrow main cusp and finer striations than S. texanus. Compare: http://oceansofkansas.com/sharks/Kansas/shscap3.jpg-

I'm fairly certain this is a posterior Cretodus - a shark known for producing Texas-sized teeth! At just 1 mm tall, this may be the smallest Cretodus tooth possible. -

The famous "ginsu shark" is a rarer species that can be found here. This is a lateral position; a tooth farther back in the mouth. I've only found a handful and none are complete.-
