From the album: Muncie Creek Shale Phosphatic Nodules
This is the most detailed side of the concretion that contains the Campodus tooth -
These are photos of an unidentified tooth from the lance formation in Wyoming, it was put in a group of mammal teeth all approximately in the range of 2-4 mm in size. Among the teeth two of them have been identified as shark, one is a Lissodus and the other is unknown as of now. If there are any ideas as to what this tooth could be please do share.

Hello! This is a canine tooth (that has been split in half) that I collected from the White River Formation (I believe Poleslide Member of the Brule) from Weld County, CO. I think it is a carnivore’s canine rather than simply an Oreodont canine just due to its size, but I could be wrong there I suppose. My best guess is Daphoeneus or similar due to its shape, it does not look like Hyaenodon to me, but again, could be totally off there. Pictured is the tooth’s lateral surface, interior (because it was split when I found it) and the “cutting surface.” Thanks!

Hello! Help please to identify teeth. I think that the upper one is Physogaleus? Length of both - slightly more than 6 mm. Age - most probably redeposits from Eocene. Location - Western Ukraine. Thanks in advance!

Please help identify these items or help verify if they are even fossils
Maneralization posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hello. I am new here and I have quite a few specimens that I believe to be teeth or claws, that appear to have fossilized from a mineralization or petrification process, but I could certainly be wrong. These have all been collected from SW Missouri. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys, I’m hoping someone can help me out by confirming the ID on this odd fossil I found in the Peace River! It is a very worn section of jaw bone with 3 teeth showing. The teeth appear to be that of an equine, so I assume what I have here is a section of an equine jaw worn by water and time. The shape of it is odd, though.

I made another trip to Post Oak Creek yesterday morning. I explored a new spot on the creek for the first time. We had some rain and snow in the area last week, but I don't expect it was enough to raise the creek level too much, or wash out much new stuff, but it definitely had everything muddy yesterday. I was surprised that, on this 70 something degree day, there were still spots of snow in shady parts of the creek, over a week after our only snow of the year. It was obvious that there weren't as many teeth in this segment of the creek, and I didn't find any larger teeth. But like other parts of the creek, there were teeth, along with other interesting stuff, to be found.

After spending a great deal of time in the house lately do to COVID and days and days of rain, I took the family on a nice leisurely walk to our favorite hunting spot on this beautiful North Texas day. While the kids wwere off collecting some beautiful Turitellas and oysters, I had only one thing on the mind, shark teeth. Cretalamna seems to dominate this site, however some large Cretodus semiplicatus have been found. A Ptychodus latissimus and 2 Plesiosaur teeth have also been found at the site, filling us with hope on each trip for an incredible find. The trip was a pretty good haul, 11 teeth found in 2 hours. Not bad for a nice family outing. The real highlight though were 2 shark verebrae (about the size of a bottle cap), not large, but still my first ones I've ever found which put me over the moon. They were found just a few feet away from each other, so odds are they belonged to the same critter which is even more incredible! And now it's time for everyone's favorite game, FIND THAT FOSSIL!

Hi, everyone, I recently collect some fossil materials of amphicyon, mainly in Ningxia province in China, I am now gonna share some of them, hope you enjoy The first one is a large mandible up to 35cm, which the total skull length is estimated to be approcimately 48cm, much larger than lions and tigers. According to its relatively slender shape, I think that this belongs to an large undescribed specie of Cynelos. It's still an young adult base on its sharp undamaged canine

Megalodon from the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany
Fossilsforever posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
Hello all, I collect shark teeth (like so many of you =). My question: are there any collectors that have Dutch Megalodon teeth/fragments and/or Belgium/German O. megalodon? Pictures of your fossils/fossil teeth are very welcome! Kind regards, Fossilsforever -
Hello, Here is what I think is a nice lot of Hemipristis serra teeth from Florida, which are about 2~2.5cm size. However I have no experience with shark teeth or teeth in general so I was wondering if these seem real, if there seems to be any restoration/reconstruction? I think most of these have nice serrations, but how is the quality of enamel and root preservation? Thanks.

I'm fairly new to collecting/hunting fossils. I bought these as Smilodon teeth last year, but I think they are Enchodus teeth. Can someone confirm? Thanks! From left to right: 5cm, 4cm, 2cm

Hello! Help please to identify tooth. Height 2,5 mm. Age: Most probably Middle Miocene or from redeposits from Eocene. I found before only Squalus, but this tooth is slightly differ from others. Western Ukraine. Thanks in advance!

Hi there everyone! I recently acquired these fossil shark teeth and was wondering if I could get a definitive identification on them. The top one in the group photo seems to have a cusp on the left side of the root which leads me to believe it’s an Angustiden tooth. The middle one has a very slim shape but no cusp (probably due to damage) so I’m assuming that this one is also Angustiden. Finally, the bottom one has me a bit perplexed. It’s small but is wide and is missing the defining cusps of an Angustiden tooth. Could this one be a Megalodon tooth? Thank you all for your help!

Ok I thought I had started to be able to ID bovine teeth and jaws and then this threw my off. This is from a post on Facebook - found in a cave in Kansas. I have posed here with he user's permission. Why is there a three-lobed molar in the middle of this lower jaw? In the past I had though the m3 for cow/bison was the only three lobed molar. But some searching online is telling me otherwise. Also the m3 here looks two-lobed. Can someone clarify?

Upper Paleocene Lamniforms (Mitsukurinidae and Odontaspididae) ID from Chile
terminatordiego posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hello to all guys!!!, I would like to ask again for help in the ID of some teeth. I´ve been searching in a local university's museum for teeth of the original strata (Upper Paleocene), and I have found a very interesting set of boxes containing a bunch of different teeth, all labeled as "Scapanorhynchus sp.", maybe existing a missidentification. The question would be if any of you guys can ID the pieces and how to differentiate the Scapanorhynchus sp. from Striatolamia striata or Sylvestrilamia teretidens, the options I´m leaning for the ID of the teeth. I would also like to check if you guys @will stevenson , @MarcoSr or @bthemoose have any info about it. You guys are awesome!! The ruler is a 1mm step grid, and I'll try to order them from anterior to posterior (I am aware that each one can be of different taxa), all of them have a stronger or weaker folded surface in lingual side. Any help or info is welcome, thanks guys!!! and greetings from Chile. 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) 9) 10) 11) 12) Finally, this one has the weakest folding:

3 Sarcosuchus teeth with a Certificate. Formation: Erlhaz Fm. Location: Tenere-Woestijn, Niger. Biggest is 3,2 cm Looking for a Megalodon or Mastodon tooth.

I found these three teeth in the town of Carrières-sous-Poissy in France, near Paris. They were mixed in with small rocks and lots of small nummulite fossils all along a country road. Two of them are shark teeth, I'd be happy to have some help with the ID for those. The third fossil is also a tooth I'm guessing, although I can't tell what type. All three are quite small, around 1cm long as you can tell from the ruler. I apologize for the quality of the images and the stark contrast, thanks for any help!

I bought a tooth of a Carcharodontosaurus from Kem Kem bed, Morocco! Seems like it was broken into three pieces and glued together, and lots of enamel worn off. But it has great size and serrations!

I made another trip to Post Oak Creek yesterday. I visited a spot on the creek where I'd already been twice last year, in the first months of my fossil hunting. The conditions the second trip were much like yesterday, months of low water and very picked over. I didn't find much that second trip. But I suspected that I have become much better at spotting tiny teeth on a gravel bar, and went back yesterday anyway. Judging from what I found, I must have been right. There were lots of broken teeth again, and nothing spectacular or unusual enough to justify a post, but I do enjoy documenting my trips, and have a question about one of the bones, so here I am. First, some in situ photos. The tooth in photo 6 is pretty hard to see. Hint: it's a Ptychodus tooth.
