Hi all, I ventured to NJ to visit Big Brook and Ramanessin Brook last weekend (Cretaceous, monmouth group). I found quite a lot of shark teeth I still have to sort through, but I could use help ID'ing some other fossil finds. Some comments on each 1. This looks a little like bone to me of some kind, but not sure. 2-5 look like plates or scutes. Not sure if turtle or croc. I realize 4 may be just a cool concretion, but I wanted to check. 6. This one is fascinating with a suture pattern of sorts that looks like it joins two pieces with the same finger like

Hi Folks, Ran into this little guy 10 mins into our trip to the brooks yesterday, never seen anything like it. I believe this is a Ghost Shrimp but I could use a second set of eyes on it. Additionally, I'm wondering how I should prep the little guy - I believe 95% of the fossil is an internal mold as the fragile black shell appears to be the top layer with much of it being worn away. As such I don't think I can reveal much more by chipping away at the rock. would love to hear some thoughts Pic: In Field Other views

Hi Everyone, It has been a long time since I asked for help Identifying something. This is very intriguing and also very confusing for me to identify. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I found this a week ago in the Ramanessin Brook in NJ. Thanks!

Hello! I had a great time at Ramanessin with the crew from DVPS. After everyone left, I went above the spillway and spent a couple hours sifting there. Eventually, I found this tooth! It's smaller and more intact than the mosasaur teeth I've seen online, but there are pretty clear enamel lines and cutting edges that cause me to lean away from IDing it as crocodilian. Would someone ID it for me please? Thank you!

So i made my long-awaited trip on Monday.. had to cut my day way short as it was 18 degrees with wind chill, then it started snowing. Glad I left when i did, i think i gave myself mild hypothermia, and it was squalling snow sideways by the time i hit the interstate! I got a few fun items though, and several definite maybes.

Found this yesterday at Ramanessin Brook in NJ. Not sure what this is. Some molar? A vertebrae? An interesting rock? Any ID suggestions welcome. Thanks!

Hey all, Feeling a little like the boy who cried Mosasaur. I am fairly confident what I have here is a Mosasaur but wanted to get another opinion. The species I believe to be Proghathodon rapax (Hay).

Sister found this one. I believe it to be a developing sawfish rostral tooth. Ischyrhiza mira (Leidy) Ramanessin Brook -
Hey all, Made two trips to Ramanessin Brook that I have yet to share. The first trip provided much of the same stuff I had already had but did yield me an amazing sawfish rostral tooth. The most recent trip (8/17/21) is where the majority of what I wanted to share was found. Sawfish rostral tooth Pycnodont Fish Angel Shark Hybodus Shark Bone Material Goblin Shark Mosasaur? Mosasaur

Hi folks, Had this come up in my sifter at Ramanessin brook, i'm thinking to ID it as a Plesiosaur tooth due to the curvature of the tooth and the oval indent in the root, would love some thoughts from experts

I ventured to the NJ brooks last weekend and made it to both Big Brook and Ramanessin Brook (Cretaceous, mix of Navesink and Mt. Laurel formations I believe). I found a few goblin and crow shark teeth, but need some help with ID for a few other finds. Thanks in advance for any help! Here are some detailed images of each. #1: concretion, or tooth? #2, definitely looks like a vertebra, but for a fish or shark? #3 also looks like a vert, or is it another concretion? #4: I fou
