    Found in England, any ideas?

    Hey. So I found this whilst digging in my Garden, Lockington, East Yorkshire, England. Any one able to identify what this may be...if anything?

    Mammal Teeth IDs

    Hi everyone, looking for some ID help on these mammal teeth. The first tooth on left was found in NC. The 2 teeth on the right were found in NJ. The middle tooth I think is a modern deer, the other 2 appear to be a lot older.

    Rodent teeth in matrix?

    So I picked up a small piece in the sandy, South Texas Pleistocene gravel the other day because it looked like there might have been some tooth enamel, but it was so covered in a sandstone matrix that I wasn't sure what it might be. The sandstone wouldn't come off with water, but when I dipped it in vinegar last night, it started to melt away. I pulled it out quickly and rinsed it with water and realized it looks like a set of top and bottom front teeth. Maybe rat? My problem is this: the matrix is hiding a lot of detail here, and I'd ideally like to clean it off completely. But it may also be the only thing holding the upper and lower halves together. Any suggestions?
  4. I found this tooth on the beach today and have NO idea what type of shark it’s from. Does anyone have any idea?
  5. I found this tooth on the beach today and I was wondering if anyone could quickly identify it for me! I’m not sure what kind of tooth it is but it’s a really good one

    What type of shark?

    Can anyone ID this fossilized partial shark tooth for me? It was found in Myrtle Beach, SC. I’m usually pretty good at identifying them; however, this is just the tip as the rest of the tooth and the root is gone. The serrated edges (if any) look really worn out too - so this thing is old! Looks like it would’ve been a decent size too. I took a photo from above too as the tooth also looks thick.
  7. Hey all These have popped up on my local buy/sell page, they're advertised as fossil teeth but I'm not experienced enough to confirm this - from the very little knowledge I have I'd guess Crocodilian....? Teeth from prehistoric predators always pique my interest so I'd like to know more before I even consider purchasing The catch is, there is zero information provided, the auction description simply states "Unknown species". That is it! I have talked to the seller about a Megalodon tooth he's selling, his knowledge on what he owns is poor, he's just been collecting interesting fossils for many years and is selling his collection so asking him for any more information would be futile. So, any guesses?

    Texas Camel/Llama Teeth?

    Like I said in my last post in this section of the forum about a turtle nuchal element, I've spent some time hunting the Colorado River here in southeastern Texas since my usual go-to spots on the Brazos have been completely submerged for months from all the rain we've been getting this summer. Fortunately, it's paid off with some unusual finds that, if my hunches are correct, aren't anything like what I normally find. These two teeth in particular were found within inches of each other close to the water's edge, however, I don't think they're associated based on the difference in preservation and enamel coloration. My initial guess was bison for the tooth still lodged in a fragment of jawbone, and deer for the other. It wasn't until I started searching for comparison images in Hulbert's excellent Fossil Vertebrates of Florida and on the forum that I realized I was probably wrong. The isolated tooth is (as far as I can tell) much too large to be deer, and the tooth in the jawbone, while superficially resembling bison teeth in the raised enamel on its occlusal surface, is shaped differently from the more common bison teeth that I've gotten ahold of in the past. So my current tentative ID is camelid, either camel or llama. If I'm right, I'd be incredibly excited - I've always been more interested in the more bizarre megafauna that used to live in Texas during the last ice age. I'd be grateful if anyone can be of any help in either confirming or providing new IDs for these two. * The length of the occlusal surface for the second tooth is 2.10 cm.

    2 inch Meg from an angry bay

    Got out on the bay today. The canoe will need repairs now that it’s been punctured. It’s no longer sea worthy until it gets fixed. Anyways, got out to the Chesapeake today and the low tide wasn’t necessarily all that low. It was unrelenting waves the whole day. There wasn’t much teeth found today as normal but that doesn’t matter. I had a really good day out on the bay despite the large tsunamis. Here’s what all was found: the total round up: The Lower Megalodon is a killer. It’s so perfect there is absolutely nothing wrong with it at all. Always consider finding a Meg to be a trip maker for sure, especially this one. The Megalodon by itself: flipped: I hope you guys enjoyed reading! Always love to come to the bay to see what treasures she holds.
  10. Hi everyone. It has been a while since I have made a post. Between some health issues and all the RAIN we have had here in NC this summer, the trips have been few. Not to mention all of the quarries still being closed due to covid. Recently I was granted permission to search a small, private agricultural limestone marl quarry. It is Eocene Castle Hayne Formation, Comfort Member. Now before anyone asks, no I will not say where or nor will I be bringing anyone to it. It is very small and my permission is very tentative. I have to get permission each time I go. It is a smorgasbord of Shark teeth and verts, sawfish rostral teeth and verts, fish parts. Other than broken pieces of Periarchus sp., a few crab claws and a few startfish ossicles it is rather void of invertebrate fossils. The marl is friable limestone. Here are a few of the teeth found so far, some of the rare Castle Hayne teeth. I will add more pics as we go along of other items found, including some nice C. auriculatusand some huge sawfish rostral teeth and verts. Heterodontus cf elongatus Hexanchus agassizi Heterodontus cf elongatus Nebrius obliquues
  11. 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

    Large shells and large owls.

    I decided to go hit up a new creek that I’d had my eyes on for a while. I didn’t know whether or not this would have anything good in it, so I biked there to go find out myself. Let me say, for the 1 1/2 hour I biked to reach this place, I’m really happy with all that I found. I also saw one of the coolest owls I’ve ever seen. It was about 2 and a half feet in size and the color of it was orangish brown and black. I think it was a great horned owl, and it looked like this: It swooped down on a branch about 10 feet in front of me, looked me dead in the eyes, and then a second later flapped it’s wings 2 times and was gone. It left about as fast as it landed, but stayed long enough where I can remember the encounter. Now onto the finds! I found an assortment of shells, including a few that might need some identification if y’all are wanting to chime in. Found some shark teeth, ray plates, and large reptile bones as well. Here’s all the stuff from this new creek: the total haul: a shell I would like some ID help on (aquia formation, Paleocene): found this beautiful gastropod from the same creek yesterday: any ideas would be helpful! Another gastropod: a what I believe to be a turritella and a fish scale in the rock: some bone fragments (large but nice pieces): and lastly, shark teeth and a croc tooth: that was a long report so if you stuck around, thanks! I won’t ever forget this day and how close that large bird came to me!
  14. Hi, guys! I am new to the world of fossil hunting. I have done some fossil-hunting up in New Jersey at Big Brook preserve but live in northern Alabama. Can anybody point me to areas in Alabama, Eastern Mississippi, or South Central to Southwestern Tennessee? I need areas where you don't have to have a boat to get to them. What little fossil-hunting I've done is always been in creek beds or on beaches. I know my area of Alabama doesn't have shark teeth but I've heard that you can find them in the southern part of the state. I just can't find anything online giving me areas to look. Now that football season is getting ready to start, I'm going to be a "football widow" on weekends and would love to spend that time out hunting. Thank you!
  15. Hello, Just wondering what the best fairs are to go in - Belgium - Netherlands - France Do you have any recommendations? Im interested in Dinosaur fossils only. Looking to get more fossils, and also looking to get more experience in this fascinating hobby Thanks for the tips ! Cheers
  16. Any idea would be appreciated, these are on some dirt pile and not together. Thanks!

    The great (crocodile) tooth identification game

    Some time ago I came across this seller selling a lot of pliosaur teeth without provenance, most of which can be attributed to misidentified teeth of Zarafasaura oceanis, the elasmosaurid of the Moroccan phosphates. However, amongst these same teeth, I also came across the below few of teeth that I'm having difficulty identifying. Tooth 5 is obviously a mosasaurid tooth from the Ouled Abdoun basin and probably belongs to Eremiasaurus heterodontus; tooth 1 seems to originate in the Kem Kem; and I suspect there are at least a few crocodile teeth amongst the rest (at least tooth 4). But I've grown quite curious to learn the identity and origin of these teeth, so was hoping to find some help here. Hence, this little game. Lets see what information we can compile on them, but no additional photographs will be made available/requested Tooth 1 Tooth 2 Tooth 3 Tooth 4 Tooth 5 To help kickstart the "game", I'll tag at least @caterpillar @Jesuslover340 @LordTrilobite @Praefectus and @Haravex. As always, feel free to tag others, but don't feel obliged to respond Thanks for your help, and have fun with what I think might be a nice little puzzle!
  21. Found these at my ranch in the dirt pile, I appreciate your ideas

    Teeth?

    Hi there, Whilst clearing a pile of rocks from an excavation for a septic tank at our house in Burgundy we came across what appear to be several large teeth. They are smooth and conical in section and the largest is around 8 inches or 200mm long. We regularly find Ammonites and Belemnites as well as other marine creatures but have never seen anything like this before. In the same pile of rocks there also appear to be some small bones which are, for us, also unusual. Grateful for any ideas as to what they might be from….
  23. I’ve made several trips to Greens Mill Run recently, lots of shark teeth and belemnites, large intact scallops and clams, large whale ribs and jaw bones and ear bones. However I have 3 fossils I cannot identify. Some pics are below: The top tooth is either mosasaur or crocodile, not sure which. The other two, I’m clueless. Any help would be appreciated!
  24. So I needed a lot of Spinosaur teeth and cheap since they were going to be a gift for kids 13-14 years old as a part of a school project. I contacted a known online shop which sells at a discount if you buy similar to seen instead of actual as seen. I think that I got a bit scammed. Maybe not, is just that these teeth looks a lot more (for me) as crocodile than Spinosaur. I know that there are a lot and the pics are not that good, but I really need just to know if some of them are in fact not Spinosaur since then I would cancel the gift. I can't just give fake information at a school project.
