I found this rock years can’t remember exactly where in Ohio but I know it was in Ohio. I was wondering if anyone help me with what is in the rock I believe the rock is sandstone but there are several spots that have a bone or tooth like look to them. Any help would be appreciated hopefully these pictures are clear enough

Hello, I found some fossil teeth on a friends ranch in Eastern Oregon and was hoping for some help with ID. The area has been described as Mascall Formation (16 Ma) from the Miocene, however there aren't any detailed geologic maps of the region and I suspect some areas may be closer to the Pliocene. The teeth were found as float material from several places. I think #1 or #2 may be Merychippus or Pliohippus (horses) and #4 may be Equus (horse). #1-3 were all found in the same general area and I am fairly confident it is Mascall Fm (Miocene). However, #4 was found in another area and appears to be Equus. Since Equus is from the Pliocene, I am thinking it could be from the younger (Pliocene) Rattlesnake Fm or an undescribed strata. I am a little more unsure about #3 and think I could be a rhino or similar large mammal. Thank you for your help,

Hello everyone! I took my daughter and 6 year old granddaughter on a “girls only road-trip” to Hanna Park in Jacksonville, Florida for some relaxation time. We did a lot of beach combing and I found some great fossils. I’ve been able to identify the majority of my haul, but need some ID assistance with a few remaining items. I have a some potential dermal denticles and scutes, and a piece of unknown bone. The bone is is very thin, less than 3 mm. I also have two TINY teeth; one may be a barracuda. I believe the other may be a shark but I haven’t been able to link it to a species. As always, any assistance is greatly appreciated! Thank you

Hello, I collected this piece a while ago from Aust Cliff, UK. The rock is from the Rhaetian, and Severnichthys teeth are quite common from here. I was wondering if perhaps this tooth could be a small Plesiosaur tooth, or Severnichthys? This measures about 3-4mm. There's also this tooth which I was thinking could be from Hybodus? It measures about 3mm across. Lastly, these four larger teeth, each measuring about 7-8mm. I haven't been able to find any close matches for these. There's also some coprolites, bone fragments and what I think is the scale of Gyrolepis albertii elsewhere on the piece. Thank you

My wife and I made our way down to North Carolina for the Aurora Fossil Museum's Fossil Festival last weekend. Overall it was a pretty productive trip and we came away with well over 1000 shark teeth, some nice shells, lots of ray teeth, some shark, fish and cetacean verts, small cetacean teeth and a bucket of coral pieces. We heard many of the regulars say that the tailings weren't as productive as other years, but I saw quite a few nice specimens being collected. A few of the larger teeth, most of ours were damaged, but some of the colors are great: Lots of smaller teeth, I will try to take some better pics once I get them sorted and layed out flat: Ray teeth and spines: All the verts were pretty beat up: A good sampling of shells: Crab claws: Sea Urchin spines: I couldn't manage to find a whole cow shark tooth, but I did see a gorgeous little complete one come out of the hole next to me. Here are a few partials we found: A few micro samples, I did grab a few jars of sifted matrix once I realized how many small teeth were falling through And lots and lots of coral my wife wanted for some project she wants to do: Overall it was a good time. We met a lot of friendly and interesting folks and my wife already asked if I wanted to book the place we stayed to come back next year. Thanks for looking, Randy

The partial repaired jaw was donated to a geological organization in Phoenix. I thought that I would try to ID it before giving it away probably to a young fossil enthusiast. No provenance is known. Is this an oreodont? Any idea where it came from? First photo of entire rock has a field of view of 4 inches. The second of the teeth is 2.25 inches for a field of view. Thanks, John

Had a nice trip with a local club and had a great day collecting malachite and petrified wood. As a bonus surprise gift...... I also found two (what at first glance I think are Permian era reptile teeth.

I was out of town for about 2 weeks and I had a chance to go fossil hunting at a pretty good spot (that post should come out soon). This is a piece of jaw one of my friends found with two teeth in it. Based off of the amount of gar scales found there my closest guess would be gar jaw, could anyone correct me on that? (Entering the pictures I notice that measurements are missing, it's about one cm.) Thank you!

Hey all Is this little fossil a partial Ejchodus jaw? The piece on the left certainly looks like one of their famous fangs (although I'm not 100% I'm correct) but the bits to the right do not look like the little needle teeth, or teeth at all. The bone texture flows in to those bumps. Scale is in cm

I got these teeth a few weeks ago from my sister and I don't know what they are. I think they are mammalian teeth but I'm not too sure. Any help will be appreciated.

Hello, some time ago I bought these 3 theropod teeth from Morocco. I suspect they come from the Kem Kem Formation, but I'm not sure because the colors are sometimes unusual. Do any of you have any idea what species or groups of dinosaurs we are dealing with here? I first labeled them as Abelisauridae indet., but I'm not sure if that's true, especially for the first tooth. Thank you in advance. Tooth 1:

I figured I would trade a few of the teeth which I have multiple of, and see if anyone is interested in trading for something that I haven't got. 1 - rare, rooted likely Psitaccosaurus tooth from the Yixian Formation of China. Lujiatun beds. 2 - Partial Rhabdodon tooth from Gres a Reptiles 3 - Ichthyovenator tooth from Laos Interested in any trades for dinosaurs I may not have. So will consider any offers.

Just pulled this tooth out of the Neuse River in Eastern North Carolina. I have no clue what it is I'm new to this and couldn't say for certain what kind of animal it came from upon researching images of various ones. Please let me know if you can tell what it is!

Hi everyone. Thanks for allowing me the opportunity to share a find. I was searching for knappable material along a river in a limestone rich area of central Pa and I found this. It seems to be limestone or chert with tiny teeth or strangely shaped quartz crystals. I can’t be sure so I wanted to share and see if anyone has an opinion. The inclusions feel sharp and are pointy unlike any crystals I’ve ever seen. Thanks for taking a look.

Hi all, I'm relatively new to the fossil world. I've purchased a small number of dino & meg teeth so far from a few (3) dealers but looking for an expanded list of reputable dealers of this sort of material as I build my collection, especially dino (teeth, claws, mostly.) I know public discussion of dealers here is a bit of a no no so hopefully some of you can PM me with any recommendations? Or alternatively, any to be avoided if you feel like sharing this privately also. Mostly interested in better quality specimens, so not ones that have undergone significant repairs/restoration, or which are in poor condition etc. Cheers

Of all the megs I have seen in person and in videos or pictures, I noticed that almost all lack any prominent curvature. Even the posterior teeth lack curvature. Are the megs with curvature a different age than the straight ones? Just wondering what peoples thoughts were.

I finally took a trip to the North Sulphur river last week. There have been a couple good rains so I was hoping that would uncover some stuff. The last couple of trips in 2021 were terrible. All muddy and picked over. This trip was still pretty muddy and little in terms of quality mosasaur material. However I went low and found a lot of smaller material. I wonder if the recent muddyness of the river is due to the lake construction or if the river just hasn't had enough rain lately? Is picture 2 an enchodus jaw? I believe the pictures of item 3 are of a really chipped piece of mosasaur tooth. Still never found a whole one this color. Are the pictures of item 4 pachyrhizodus? I have seen people say these are really small mosasaur but I have always doubted this. Any way to identify item 5? Maybe xiphactinus? Item 6 are the few decent mosasaur pieces i found. Is the second one a phalanges bone? Any idea about 7? It is heavily fossilized so i was thinking cretaceous but the shape makes me think of more recent like pleistocene. And my final question. Is item 8 coprolite? Im terrible at identifying the stuff. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.
