From the album: Pennsylvanian Fossils of Northeast Oklahoma
This is one of the crushing teeth of Deltodus, from Pennsylvanian (Desmoinesian) shale in northeastern Oklahoma. This tooth is only about 4 mm thick. Deltodus comprised a genus of cartilaginous fishes in the class Chondrichthyes, subclass Holocephali. Modern day holocephalans include chimaeras.-

Where to get started in finding Central Texas teeth and bones
Jared C posted a topic in Questions & Answers
I'm a newbie who lives in the Austin area with a lot of passion for ancient life, but I'm having trouble making a decisive start with with my searches. I have a particular interest in large western interior seaway predators, most notably xiphactinus, but also the mosasaurs and sharks that lived in the area as well. Finding a vertebrae, of perhaps even teeth from these groups would be absolutely wonderful, but of the few creeks in the Austin area I've scouted, I've been able to turn up nothing besides gastropods. This is still despite heavily studying the sometimes confusing Texas geological maps So with this in mind, how and where do I start? Are there any places in the Austin area where I may have some luck in discovering possible vertebrae or teeth? I'd love any advice, I'm eager to make a start but I'm quite alone and need a little bit of guidance. Thanks! -

Two teeth here. I think both are from the beach in Jacksonville Florida. Although, the first might have been from a phosphate mine. I can’t remember. They look like they might be canines?

Total newbie at fossils and to this forum. Husband and I spent the weekend exploring the NSR in Ladonia Texas. Had so much fun and think I found some cool stuff. Definitely some teeth, some baculite? Maybe some petrified wood? Thanks in advance for anyone who is kind enough to respond.

Total newbie here, hoping for some help identifying my finds. Spent the weekend digging and exploring the NSR in Ladonia. I know I have some teeth and baculite.

Hey Folks, my presence has been a little light on here lately, I have been hanging around in TFF facebook as an admin and working on furthering my nascent paleo career. I hope you are all doing well, I certainly miss all my forum friends! I have been doing a little side project for a few months: writing Wikipedia pages for fossil Cartilaginous fish. It's one little way I can give back to the fossil community, so the next curious person doesn't have to go through the trouble of finding and accessing references and distilling information for obscure species as I have. It's also a task I find a little mindless and relaxing. Anyway, one problem I consistently run across is a lack of usable photos. While not strictly necessary, I think it is helpful to have a visual aid. Up until now, I have gone down the list alphabetically and contacted people to get pictures of teeth, but this is extremely tedious and I don't always get responses. So, I have a humble request! If you have shark or ray teeth from species or genera which do not yet have a picture and/or page on Wikipedia and you would be fine with it being used on one, upload a picture to Wikimedia Commons or post it in this thread and I can upload it. If you chose the former, let me know here so I can write a page on it or insert it into the proper article. If you chose the latter, it will be under my name (Mason Hintermeister) but I can credit you in the description. If you'd like me to do so, let me know what name you'd like to be credited as (You can PM me this information if you like). If you have fossils of species and genera which don't have Wikipedia pages which are not cartilaginous fish, I can upload them too and maybe even write a page for them. I'm not expecting a ton of responses here, but I like to think every new page and picture helps. Photographs are usually under a CC BY-SA 4.0 license, a fancy way of saying the photograph is usable by anyone provided they link the citation and they do not alter the photograph. If you upload it yourself, you have other options and if you have me upload it and you would like to use a different option just let me know. Thanks in advance!

Hi all!! These were found along the Venice, FL beaches this past week (along with other items that like dozens of shark teeth, a sand dollar, lots of shells, etc). My extreme novice research says the common epochs here are Plio and Pleistocene (but spans early Miocene through Pleistocene epochs from what I have read), with the main formations being undifferentiated shellbeds, Caloosahatchee formation, Tamiami formation, and Fort Thompson Formation (although I've seen geo material reference others as well like the Peace River Formation, which I know is popular on TFF, but unsure whether it actually encompasses Venice Beach area). From reading the forums, it seems that Venice is already well known by members, so I suppose I am mostly writing out this info above you so all can correct me if I am wrong! Could anyone else identify any of these? I have a few guesses, but that is about it. Set A really interested me because of what looks like fossils within in them - maybe I am just seeing things though *I didn't put much focus on the shark teeth (this was just a group of the teeth found on 1 of the days). I am really interested to learn how to identify other items!
