Hi guys! I went to look for some bones on the beach like I always do when the river flow goes down, there's always something but the problem is that I never know what I found. The last time they helped me here to identify a whale humerus, thanks a lot! This time I found several bones, but I had to discard many because they were badly broken or did not look interesting. All of these are about the same (12-18cm) The one that looks better is that kind of vertebra, I searched with Google and it says it could be from a bison, but sounds weird a bison in a beach, and btw, t

Paper describes a large theropod from Uruguay represented by isolated teeth which resemble Ceratosaurus. I dont have access to this paper but it will be interesting to see the multvariate analysis results and be able to compare these teeth to those found in Portugal. What is interesting in the highlights is that they propose that the spinosaurid Ostafrikasaurus crassiserratus from Tanzania should be referred as a ceratosaurid theropod.

Isolated teeth from the Tacuarembó Formation of Uruguay have revealed the first Megalosaurid from South America. The teeth have strong resemblance to Torvosaurus and as such the Megalosaur from Uruguay and Tanzania are suggested to be from Torvosaurus. It is paywalled but the abstract describes the features of the teeth. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S089598111930505X

Hello, I was just traveling for a while and I was in the Rocha Department of Uruguay an area north east of Montevideo on the coast. I was walking along the severe hightide line of the shore just in front of a formation of a large sand dune area. I came across this what I think to be bone but potentially an antler. Uruguay was home to many Miocene Mammals and other fauna. Any ideas what this may be from from? Hard and heavy stone sounding when tapped. Marrow fossilized within perhaps. Any help is much appreciated! Patrick

Hi! I found this on the beach of a freshwater lake in Uruguay that has in the past been part of the pacific ocean. I think it is an inner ear bone of some marine mammal, but I don't know from how long ago or from what kind of animal. I'm sorry that there's no scale, but it's an inch and a half long, one inch wide and on average about 1cm thick and the holes are about 2mm diameter). Can anyone help?? I can give more information about the location if it would be useful. Thanks!!
