    Florida Mammal Teeth

    Below are two Pleistocene mammal teeth from "river gravels" in Florida. I have to further information on their age or locality, unfortunately. The left was merely identified as a "mammal tooth", and I strongly suspect it is from Trichechus manatus, but I have very little experience with mammal dentition and as such thought it would be best to check with someone with greater expertise in the field first. The right tooth was identified as a "peccary tooth", but given the fact that a number of tayassuids were present in Pleistocene Florida I wondered if the tooth could be identified to a genus, or better yet a species level. I will now take the liberty of "@ing in" a few people: @Harry Pristis and @Shellseeker Thanks in advance for any proposed ID's Othniel
  2. I found this tooth a while back in a small private agricultural marl pit I have been hunting for a few years. It is Eocene Castle Hayne Formation in eastern North Carolina. This pit has produced roughly 26 species of Eocene sharks, including multiple Hexanchus, C. auricualtus up to 3 1/2 inches; sea snake verts, large amounts of Pristis fossils among other items. It also has yielded multiple archaeocete whale teeth and verts. I originally thought this was a small whale tooth, but it just didnt seem right to call it whale. In Oct. at the annual NCFC Fossil Fair in Hickory N.C. I had it on display. Retired Smithsonian Paleontologist Dave Bohaska said he thought it was "sea cow" He took multiple pics of it, but I am still awaiting his replies. I have been doing some research on line when I came upon this archived thread. What do you guys think? @siteseer @Boesse Adding pics in next post
  3. Made my first fossil hunting trip to South Carolina, went to some areas around Summerville, thought I’d share pics of some of the fossils I collected! The best finds were some echovenator-like teeth, Angies, great whites, some intact sections of dugong ribs, and several associated pieces of a sea turtle shell. Felt like Indiana Jones exploring all the creeks trying to find productive spots haha. Fun trip, hope to return in the future!

    Dugong rib or something else?

    Can I get help identifying this? I found on a fossil dig at a land site in Summerville, SC. My guide thought it was a mammoth tusk. But after getting home and cleaning, I do not see schreger lines. So I believe it may be a dugong rib, but am not certain.
  5. I found this bone in the san sebastian limestone, in Puerto Rico. I always find interesting fossils there, but this is the first bone I collect. There have been skeletons of extinct sirenia found in this exact same place, so maybe it could actually a fossilized bone from an extinct species. I have no clue when it comes to bones though, so an expert is highly apreciated.

    dugongid periotics

    From the album: BONES

    A pair, left and right, of dugongid periotics. These are bones of the internal ear. Mio-Pliocene of Hardee County, Florida. Compare to Metaxytherium sp. Discussion and more images at: http://www.thefossil...se/?hl=dugongid

    dugong & manatee teeth

    From the album: TEETH & JAWS

    This one is the smallest dugong tooth in my drawer; most are substantially larger. Manatee teeth are not rare among Florida fossils. Dugong teeth are not common. (This image is best viewed by clicking on the button on the upper right of this page => "other sizes" => "large".)
