From the album: Eagle Ford Group
Ptychodus latissimus, DFW Turonian, Cretaceous Apr, 2023 Ptychodus latissimus is a rare species and is better known from Early Coniacian deposits like the Atco. However, they are not unheard of from the Middle Turonian. This fragment of a tooth is extremely low crowned and possesses few very yet thick transverse ridges. It also has a unique margin. I don't think there is any other Ptychodus species that can match this design better than P. latissimus. I've got a couple more potential Kamp Ranch sites circled so fingers crossed I can find a more complete specimen in the near future.-

From the album: Austin Chalk
Ptychodus latissimus, Travis Co. Cretaceous Mar, 2022 Originally found in a gravel deposit. Formation of origin is unknown. It could be due in part to heavy weathering, but the tooth appears to show signs of digestion. Also thank you to @LSCHNELLE for IDing this guy as well as many other teeth!-
