Hi all! Found this odd little vertebra in my Post Oak Creek micro matrix. I assume it's fish, but the small end and the big end have me a bit confused. I am not too knowledgeable in vertebrate material so any help will be appreciated. Thanks! It is 8mm x 5mm

Hello, Can someone take a look at this and give your thoughts? I bought it without getting it ID'd because of it's ridiculously low price--if I waited to get it ID'd it would have probably been snapped up. So, figured it was worth a buy now, id later. Anyway, it is sold as been "dinosaur vertebra" from Hell Creek, Montana. I think it is Edmontosaurus because of the heart-shaped centrum--others online seem to have that shape to them. I was wondering if it might also be a Thescelosaurus vertebra given the small size, but most of them I see seem to have more rounded centrums, whereas this is quite prominently heartshaped. Apologies for the poor seller's photos, I'll get some better ones if needed once it arrives. But if someone can give it an ID now, I can update my fossil record database and that would be great. Many thanks

Any idea if this bone is a dinosaur vertebra? It is from Madagascar but unfortunately no further information as to its exact locality/formation. The seller said the nerves are also preserved, is that so?

This is not a fossilized bone, but I cannot figure out what it is and it is and I’m dying to know. It was found by my father near an archaeological site which also had fossils and plentiful evidence of Native American food remains. It is a cervical vertebrae of some sort, but I can’t figure out what it belongs to. The site was coastal.

From the album: Delaware Fossils
Vertebrae from either a stingray or skate. Found in close proximity to each other at a site where such things are rare, so probably from the same animal. L:arger one is about 3cm wide. Found at Reedy Point, C and D Canal, Delaware. Maastrichtian. -
This is supposed to be a Stenopterygius vertebra from Holzmaden, Germany. But is it? Could be a fish vert? (Xiphactinus audax?)

Hi everyone, I recently bought this 'Triceratops' vert from Hell Creek online. But on receiving it, I have doubts. I might consider it to be an Edmontosaurus vert. It is not that heart shaped and thicker than a Ceratopsian I figure. What are your thoughts? Dimensions: 12,5cm (h), 9cm (w), 7cm (d) - weight +/- 700 grams More pics needed? Thank you!

ound this vertebra yesterday at Big Brook. Concave on both sides, but one side is smaller than the other, giving it the shape of a truncated cone. If you need other views or macros, please let me know. IMG_1867.MOV IMG_1867.MOV

I have here a 3.3" Vertebra from the Kem Kem of Morocco, identified as Carcharodontosaurid. Before I buy it, I'd like to know how accurate that identification might be. I know how tricky verts can be to narrow down. I'm suspicious for that reason. Thank you, Bellamy

Hi, anyone able to help with this? It's sold as Theropod, from Abingdon. 10.5 x 8 x5 cm. Unfortunately it's very weathered and has been squashed and distorted during fossilization, so it seems difficult to ID. Personally, I think it's been misidentified. At 5 cm, it seems much too thin. Secondly, I'm looking at some drawings of theropod and megalosaur verts and they seem to bend inwards a lot in the middle (not sure of the actual term for it) with large centrums and going narrow in the middle. But if someone else can take a second look, just to confirm I'm right, that would be great. Thanks for the help

Hi im a mineral hunter, and my whife picked up this little thing, first i was thinking it was some kind of slag, but after closer inspection it seem to have kind of a organic shape and is non magnetic with lots of small pores. Can this be a fossilized thing?

Hi! I got this Hadrosaur caudal vert from the two medicine formation. in Pondera County. I was wondering what part of the tail this bone would have come from? the seller says it is likely a proximal vertebra, but couldn't give any details on its placement. Is there any possible way you can tell what part of the tail this fossil belonged to? assuming a grown individual of the species. If exact placement isn't possible, Ill settle for general region. The centrum of the Vert is 2.7 x 2.3. x 2.2" and the process is 7.6" long in a straightline including the anterior points of articulation. As always I can provide more detailed pictures/measurements of requested parts of the specimen.

The waterways are down enough to hunt some again in my area. This is a find from yesterday, sandy gravel matrix in the river. Pleistocene era. I'm thinking it looks like a spinous process from a large vertebrae, but I'm not positive. I'm also unclear on size differences and other distinctions that could help me narrow down the species. I was thinking possibly bison or camel. Any ideas would be great.

Hi hoping for a bit of help with a couple of shark teeth finds from the Eocene (42mya), Bracklesham group in Whitecliffe Bay on the Isle of Wight. I don't often find shark teeth so not sure about the ID so hope someone on here can help. Walking back to the car I found a vertebra in the sand washed out from the cliff, (cliffs are Bembridge Marls / Solent Group or early Oligocene - about 34mya) my initial thought was turtle but something about the shape is making me think lizard so again would appreciate any help with the ID. (Grid in the photographs is 5mm square). If other views would help please let me know and I will post them as well. Any help would be much appreciated, Cheers Martyn
