Nothing extraordinary, but I found an area with several chunks of matrix with teeth in them. -

Largest three teeth likely from Scapanorhynchus sp. No idea on the smallest one. -

Didn't find much this time. I don't think it's rained in a while - the water looked stagnant. Also was picked over well. Favorite find is the mostly complete Cretodus (found it under a fallen tree).-

Back again for more information. These teeth are driving me nuts. I am working on a Coniacian deposit from north central New Mexico, and have gotten around 20,000 fossils from sifting and screen washing ant hills. The vast majority are scapanorhynchids (over 12,000), but there are at least 25 other species represented. These teeth come from a possible barrier island deposit, and the wave action prior to fossilization must have been intense, since almost all the teeth are missing roots. There are around 1500 teeth that look like scapanorhyncus cf. raphiodon, but they have no

fossil shark tooth | measuring in inches in centimeters
Darrell Barnes posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
Here is a video I made, measuring the cusp of a Scapanorhynchus fossil shark tooth from Frankstown, MS. I used the technique suggested by a previous post regarding the measurement of the tooth cusp of "Carcharocles, Carcharodon and Isurus using anterior teeth." Does the technique and measurement I performed appear legitimate? fossil shark tooth | measuring in inches in centimeters -

The teeth found in POC can take on a reddish and/or orange color. This goblin shark tooth was quite colorful! Collected 6/21/19. -

Our Shark Education Program- Cows, Crows, and Goblins
fossilsonwheels posted a topic in Member Collections
After the Hybodontids, our program starts to transition toward the modern sharks. We introduce lamniform sharks and the cow sharks. We will not be able to spend much time at all on the Cow and Crow Sharks. They only get a brief introduction and a look at the teeth. Squalicorax is an important species for us even though we do not spend a lot of time on it. The students in first few classes we do presentations for will be going home with Squalicorax teeth from Morocco. We would like to spend more time on the Cow sharks eventually but we only have one tooth to show them and we will have to edit c -
Here are two teeth from a fairly recently (2011) described Scapanorhynchus species from the Upper Cretaceous Santonian in New Mexico. Scapanorhynchus puercoensis has a dentition similar to S. lewisii and was likely very similar. My son and I do classroom science presentations about fossils and our shark program features Scapanorhynchus. He used the lewisii as the basis for his illustration and now we can actually provide teeth that are a closer match to that than S. texanus likely was. This also allows him to draw S. texanus in a more Sand Tiger like form which we both think it was. I put quit
