I think this is a Rex tooth because it has a thick base and the tooth is wide, but I’m not expert and was hoping someone could reaffirm for me.

Hey y'all. I haven't seen anyone post about POC microfossils, so last time I was there I filled a sandwich bag full of gravel. I looked through it yesterday and found a bunch of neat stuff: sawfish oral teeth (see gallery), tiny sharks' teeth, vertebrae, fish teeth, mastodon ivory (?), bone, etc. There's this one tooth that I can't i.d. I'm not sure if it's sawfish, I don't think it's a shark. Thank you!

Hi Folks, I've been holding onto this for years as it always looked like a tooth to me. Any help would be appreciated. I found it while hiking at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon in the 90's. Probably a rock just wanted see what others thought.

Hi all, I have a tricky tooth ID question. For now it is labeled as Theropod indet. and I guess this is as far as it gets, but I just want to check if someone else gets a Dromaeosaurid vibe =) It was found in the Lourinhã Formation. Crown height is 6mm. Denticles per 1mm are 9 mesial and 7 distal. Mesial denticles are also much shorter, and the mesial carina ends at about half way from the anterior of the tooth (maybe 2/3 considering the tip is missing). Distal denticles are slightly hooked towards the anterior. I went through quite some papers from similar aged formations in Portugal/Spain and Morrison formation but without any real luck: Zinke 1998 describes possible Dromaeosaurid teeth that might fit the bill regarding denticle density and roughly TCH/FABL/BW when scaled to this tooth (6.09mm/3.61mm/1.95mm). Any help is highly appreciated!

I’ve had this tooth for a few years, and it was sold to me as Carcharodontosaurus. Recently I’ve been doubting that because it isn’t as triangular as other Carcharodontosaurus teeth I’ve seen. I was wondering if anyone thinks it might still be a Carcharodontosaurus tooth, or something else. I’ll post some pictures

I got this tooth a while ago, and It was sold to me as T-Rex. I’m not really sure if it is indeed from one, or a Nanotyrannus. It’s a small tooth, found in the Hell Creek formation. Either way it’ll still be one of my favorite teeth. I’ll post some pictures.

Megatron Tooth ID! Redefining Everything We Once thought We Knew
Kurufossils posted a topic in Members' News & Diversions
Came across an extraordinarily important scientific find on a large well known auction website surprisingly, this tooth has been IDed by the seller as coming from 'Megatron'. I apologize for the low quality photos but they will provide you with all the evidence you need to make this id, museums and top paleontologist must be contacted and papers rewritten, I strongly believe that transformers are makos in disguise. -
Hi there, I was wondering if I could get your opinions on the tooth below. The seller has said it is a Baryonyx but have mentioned that they can't see any serrations so maybe croc? The ridges in the pic stop about 2/3 of the way down to the base of the tooth. I will get location, formation etc if possible from the seller soon. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Back in 2016 I went fossil hunting in Ramanessin Brook, New Jersey. I found plenty of shark teeth as usual (Squalicorax, Scapanorhynchus, Archaeolamna etc.) and a few small invertebrates. But two teeth looked different from the rest. Since then I have just referred to them as fish teeth but I'm not sure how accurate that is. Mosasaur teeth are apparently found regularly at Ramanessin and I have heard of people finding crocodile teeth as well. The potential reptile tooth is very small, which is what made me think that it came from a fish originally. I'm not sure what the more striated tooth belongs to but it could come from a Xiphactinus or be a sawfish rhostral spine. If anyone could help me out in identifying these fossils that would be great

This tooth came from the Castle Hayne quarry. Not sure if it's a Cretaceous or Eocene tooth. Can anyone identify? Ruler measuring centimeters/millimeters, so tooth measures 2.5 centimeters.

Can you help me to ID this tooth. It found it planked in the jaw of a mosa from Khourigba, Morocco. It is 4 cm long. My guess is elasmosaur but I have no idea about it...
