Hi all! I got a box with some fossils from my father who got it form my grandpa. It seems they were collected in Sahara desert, in the south of Marocco region. I was able to identify some of them (enrolled trilobites, crinoids, etc...) but can't identify the one in the attached pictures. Of course, I'm not an expert on fossils. Just that I love it and want to know more about it. Could you please help me identify it? Many thanks! Greetings from Madrid!

Mosasaur tooth with the replacement tooth still in place. I always wondered what the weird round/oval holes were on the side of mosasaur roots. Finally it all falls into place!- 3 comments

Here we go, I finally got two nice Sinosauridae indet. teeth (long more or less 8-9 cm). I love the fact that one is pointy and not broken, while the bigger one has the typical ridges along the tooth. What do you think?

2 unidentified mosasaur species' anterior end of premaxillary bones. One with teeth broken off just beyond the skull, and the other has 2 remaining teeth, with the rest broken off at the level of the skull. the larger fossil was found in the phosphate mines of Khouribga, Morocco. ive since lost the information for the smaller fossil, sadly. -

Megalodon tooth and tooth fragments. -
Hi! Can someone please help me to identify these items? I found them at a beach in Portugal, close to the city of Setubal. I often find bones there too but I don’t dare to bring them home...

Hey Everyone! I very recently started collecting dinosaur and shark teeth and thought I’d share with you the beginnings of a hopefully great collection like @Jaimin013‘s, who suggested I show these. Hope you enjoy! Some of the teeth include: Nanotyrannus/ Trex tooth tip Mosasur tooth Hell Creek Raptor Edmontasaurus Spinosaurus Possible Megalodon Other shark teeth, mako, tiger, snaggletooth, etc.

Shark Teeth Caloosahatchee Formation Florida Pliocene/Pleistocene
alej9582 posted a topic in Fossil ID
Guys, In 4 days of sifting in this locality (Caloosahatchee River/Fisheating Branch) I have only found 2 shark teeth, in reality I didn't expect to find any at all as it seems to have been amphibian/mammal/mollusk land which points to a lacustrine environment. So at some point the area must have been a shallow see as well but there is no way to know age difference. Anyhow here are the two specimens I found. Both small in size (nursery area?). There is a lot of info on shark teeth around but I am having difficult with this two guys. Any thoughts? Thanks, Alex

Please help me identify this fossil found yesterday on a hike Door County. It was found among very common fossils like corals.

From the album: Marine reptiles and mammals
Unidentified Cretaceous crocodile species, suggested by multiple people, to appear to be a Dyrosaurus, came from the second phosphatic layer of a phosphate mine(what a shocker!)around the suburbs of Khouribga, Morocco. Original teeth, not replacements. Have gone through and cleaned up the base of some of the ones that had some sand around them. -
Spinosaurus tooth - real, not composite?
Chelasmosaurus posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hi, I came across this fossil Spinosaurus tooth - at least it looks like a real Spinosaurus from what I can tell, but I'm not an expert ... hence my visit here I'm also wondering if it's a single tooth or multiple specimens glued together. I'm worried about the differences in color between the top half and bottom half, but the shape seems to line up pretty nicely, so I'm just not sure. So, is this a real Spinosaurus tooth? And is it a single fossil or a composite? Your help is greatly appreciated! Thanks

Nanotyrannus-Tyrannosaurus transitional teeth.
Miocene_Mason posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
We were having a discussion on the validity of Nanotyrannus Here, and I have a question for all you theropod tooth collectors. Many say that Nanotyrannus lancensis is a adolescent Tyrannosaurus rex. Now some here have many teeth from both. Nanotyrannus has gracile, thinner teeth, whereas tyrannosaurus has robust, thick teeth. If N. Lancensis is a juvenile form, than we should expect to see a transition in teeth from slender to thick. In other words, a spectrum of teeth. Do any of you collectors have this represented in your collection? Or a transitional tooth? Please do post pictures. Now it is possible that there is one day a sudden change from one form to the other, but I’ve not seen anything to indicate that to be the case (if you do please share it). I will I’ll add I don’t have any of either teeth, and this is purely to satisfy my curiosity.- 20 replies

Fast. Intelligent. Deadly. The "Raptor" is perhaps one of the most famous dinosaur today thanks to Jurassic Park. To many people's surprise however, raptors are heavily feathered and nimbler than movies would have you believe. The Jurassic Park Velociraptor was merely the size of coyote in real life! In fact, their proper family name is 'Dromaeosaurid'. The largest species was Utahraptor, and it grew to the size of a grizzly bear! Dromaeosaurid fossils have been found all over the world. They first appeared during the Cretaceous, though isolated teeth have been found in the mid-Jurassic. Allow me to present my humble collection of Dromaeosaurid teeth. First up, from Cloverly Formation, one of my pride and joy from @hxmendoza A dromaeosaurid from Aguja Formation. I am seeing more Aguja fossils showing up, but dromaeosaurid teeth are still rare. Now, for the dromaeosaurids from the famous Hell Creek Formation. Some of them probably lived alongside T. rex. A big shout-out for @Troodon for getting me started on dromaeosaurids with this very first Acheroraptor!

I was down in Florida in January to see family, and visit old friends I haven’t seen in 20 years. While out for dinner I showed them some pictures of my sharks teeth, and also pointed out that some had restoration. One of the people in the group happened to be an artist and was very intrigued with the fine details in the restoration work and asked if I could send her some cheap teeth so she could play around. I sent her 10 teeth, this tooth is the tenth tooth she has ever handled or worked on, and I am quite amazed at the work. Here are pictures of the finished tooth, I will post the before picture shortly. All feedback would be greatly appreciated so I can give it to the artist to help her get better.

I alreay posted my little hunt in Antwerp here. Beside that I also hunted on a few beaches near Cadzand. Its quite a popular location and there are many people, who are looking for shark teeth. But the quality of the shark teeth isnt that good compared to land sites. Here are some pictures of the beaches: I was mainly in Cadzand directly, in the area of Nieuwvliet but also on a beach near Vlissingen. Here is a picture of the beach near Vlissingen (De Kaloot): Some "in situ" pictures: + Doesnt look too bad Here is my haul: This was the biggest one with a length of 4 cm from Cadzand: I was very happy about this one: A 2.5 cm long Notorynchus primigenius I found it at the "Zwarte Polder" (near Cadzand) One of the best non-tooth-find was this ear bone of a dolphin: (about 3 cm long) My find werent that good but the season wasnt ideal. (too hot, too many people, not much wind ...) Nevertheless I am satisfied with my finds and hopefully next year I can find even more things Thanks for watching!

Can you find shark teeth on the east coast of australia?
FrostbyteFossils posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
Is there anywhere to find shark teeth(or other fossils) on the east coast beaches of NSW, Australia? -
Hello! We took a short trip to Summerville yesterday & had a good haul. This is the item we are most interested in knowing more about if anyone can help. Thanks!

Good time at the North Sulphur River in Ladonia, Texas this weekend. Here are some of the things we found! I’m curious about the gray ammonite (bottom right). I’ve attached a few photos at the end (first two photos) to see if any of you know what the black line is running through it at the bottom. It reminds me of the vein in a shrimp!

I think this is a shark due to the multiple rows of teeth but that's all I got they are really small maybe belong to a juvenile the fossil is about 1.5 inches
