Here is a tooth I acquired recently acquired. It was mixed in with a bunch of the usual kem kem stuff, gar scales, sawfish barbs, small damaged spino and croc teeth ect. This tooth stood out so I got it and wonder if anyone has any clues? The mesial serrations are smaller than the distal side and they stop about a quarter of the way up the tooth. About 13mm long base is 8 mm from distal to medial and 5 to 6 mm from lingual to labial end.

Hello everyone, I bought a bucket of small shark teeth from a fossil dealer in my country many years ago. The tag on it says it’s from morocco, khouribga, and the age is Eocene, Cenozoic. I found it when I was cleaning my room last week, and I started trying to identify them. I guess that 1st and 3rd one is carcharias, 2nd one is striatolamia, and the 4th one is cretolamna. If these conjectures are obviously wrong, I’m very sorry about that. In my country, there is no research on this subject and these sharks don’t even have an official name. Thanks for your help.

My sister found this little fossil, she found it in a lot of loose fossils, trying to see what it is. Any ideas? I’m thinking coral?

Please help with an ID for these small teeth found in the Lee Creek spoils pile. Sorry for the poor image quality, but my cell phone does not take good pictures of tiny objects. Both teeth are approx. 5mm wide and 7mm tall

I found this bone in a creek bed in middle Tennessee very shortly after a large flood exposed new sediment. I know that that are of Tennessee was once a seafloor so it is likely marine. Any help is appreciated.

Hi all As you probably know I have really been interested lately in macro photography. Let’s see any of your wonderful fossil adventures in close up. Today I found this little beauty a shark tooth (I have not ID it yet but it could be Negaprion lemon shark tooth) form Rattlesnake Creek micro matrix I was sent. It is only about 3mm but a Bobby dazzler. Looking forward to seeing some of your very interesting pictures.

Is this a fossil of some sort? They were found in the same area in Missouri.

This was found in Ilion, NY near a creek bed. Any ideas, am I off base thinking its a bone?

From the album: Missouri Ammonites and Nautiloids
My first Ammonite find, Gave it to a friend a year ago so I was unable to measure it properly -
Found this for sale online. I don’t know if it is real or not, but I took a gambit and got it. Received it today and wanted to show you all. Jared

New to the forum and I've had this for about a year now and thought I'd toss it out there to see if anyone else finds it interesting. Unfortunately I don't have a lot of info on this. I found it at an estate sale and it was fairly low price so I thought I'd take a risk and grab it because I've never seen anything like it. Was told the owner originally got it in a shop in Utah and was told it was an egg. It had been in a fire (you can see scorch marks on the top, where there looks to be the spine) but pretty well intact. I don't see any obvious hard shell but I do notice flaking of what looks l

I found this small bivalve in the Bay Point Formation exposed in Point Loma in San Diego, CA. These were very plentiful, and I also found many extremely tiny ones when searching through micro matrix from the site. The Scale is in Centimeters. The underside of the specimen

Hi, Can someone please help me ID this small fish fossil, thanks, it's 40mm long.

Hi all! I've always found fossils to be quite interesting but never took the time to really get into them so I'm useless at identifying them. Well, recently I went to Galveston beach and found this item washed up after a storm. It's small (about 2cm across) and feels rather fragile/thin. I've never seen anything like it besides an ammonite but then those are always cast in rock, I believe, and this feels just like a fragile shell that I could probably crush if I accidentally stood on it. This may just be some sort of strange shell, but some googling hasn't led me to anything other tha

I found these pieces today, the one on the left is wood but unsure if it is petrified or not, it sinks but that might be because rocks are attached on the other side, I could light it but I’d prefer a safer method. The one on the right is most likely a rock but I find the shape strange like maybe a piece of petrified branch? Thanks for the help

While doing some trilobite research yesterday I came across this species of trilobite that didn’t get larger than 2 mm. I couldn’t find much information on it just that it was from the Ordovician and it’s the smallest trilobite. How do they know that it isn’t just a baby of another species?

I tried out a new fossil spot and it is loaded with these weird barnacle looking things. My best guess is puffer fish mouth plate? I also found what looks like a fossilized scale. Any ideas what they might be? These were all found about 15 miles inland from the coast by Charleston, SC. I found them sifting gravel in a small stream that cut into the fossil layer.

I found this probably rock near Estes park Colorado, I’m pretty sure it’s a rock but I thought i would come here and ask just in case, so fossil or not?

I’ve had this mepygurus marmonti sand dollar from the Jurassic of Madagascar for years now and when I was looking at it I noticed these small circles on the bottom. Are these on every sand dollar, it appears to be a part of it so my guess was some sort of way for tiny legs to attach but it’s just a guess the sand dollar is 7.5 centimeters and each dot is just under 1 millimeter

I have two shark teeth that I don’t know what shark it belongs to. I’ve had them for years and haven’t payed much attention because I forgot about them. I know the one in the bottle is modern but an ID would still help. Not sure about the other one I know the root is broken and unfortunately it’s split in half but it’s darker so I don’t know if it’s fossil or not. I just want to know what shark owned these teeth and if the second tooth is modern or fossilized. Thanks
