Another hot day when it is nice to be in the river water. Zolfo is a little over 6 feet and so we try to exploit those spots which were lower than average 2-3 months ago. A lot of interesting finds, many on the smaller side. A spit tooth and a small Meg I almost recognized this as a large version of a Tilly bone. Hopefully some can confirm or comment... Rostral Tooth.. Is this identifiable to Pristis pristis ? A dolphin periotic, have to work on which dolphin. It has some variation on what I normally find. I think the next is a sponge (silicified). Not clear what else it could be... I see many of these endocasts of shells over time. Decided to attempt the specific shell this time... Finally , an interesting Osteoderm.. I would like it to be a Glypodont tail Osteoderm, but it might be from a Giant tortoise.... Should be other Peace River hunters who have seen these...

I was out hunting recently. In addition to numerous small shark teeth, I found a nice posterior Meg, a horse astragulas, and a rostral tooth different from those I had found previously. With friends in the sunshine, it was more than enough. Usually I find Rostral teeth that look like this one from @MarcoSr, although not as perfect... This one looks different.... damage, trick of the lighting.... Thanks for any/all comments. jack

Hello all A couple of months ago I made a topic about a Onchopristis numidus rostral tooth with two barbs, instead of the usual single one: Now I also have a rostral tooth from the same location (Kem Kem Compound Assemblage in Morocco) without a single barb. It has not broken off either, this is just how the tooth looks. I don't think I ever saw one like this before. It's pretty small for Onchopristis numidus, but not unusual for the species. I remember reading somewhere that Sclerorhynchidae (in contrary to modern-day sawfish) shed their rostral teeth, but I don't know if that's correct. So what could this be? A pathological tooth, a new tooth after an old one has shed or a complete different species? Thanks in advance @LordTrilobite, @siteseer, @Haravex

A rostral tooth of I. mirs. These are not uncommon, but always a pleasure to find. This one is nicely colored.

Ischyrhiza mira I have collected many rostrals but ones of this size and quality are very hard to come by.
