Hello, All 🙂 Found this sitting on the riverbed while crossing a shallow section a month ago or so. Same spot I found a bovid cervical vert trip Before. Tossed it in the boat as a modern cow thoracic to identify “which one”. Saved it for a day when the temps cold and the water is up. That’s today, only problem is I can’t find a vertebra with a fork in it to save my life. Cow, horse, camel , oxen… no forked thoracic. Can bovids of different breeds have different vertebrae characteristics? Is this not a thoracic vert? Where too next?? its 7.5” long and 3” wide with the broken piece added back into the measurement. That’s 187mm ish long… Peace River , Florida modern thru Miocene Thanks for any insight or suggestions. Appreciate the feedback Jp

From the album: Sonickmonx's South Carolina Finds
This vertebra is almost 4" in diameter. I found it in the Donoho Creek Formation. According to my references this is a massive plesiosaur vertebra. I have had some discussion around it, but have not had any evidence pointing to another culprit. -

to A while back... probably like 5 years ago. I bought a grouping of Texas mosasaur vertebrae from a dealer online, and am now sorting through all of the fossils that I have accumulated in order to downsize my collection. I found this vertebra in with them, and I don't think it is a mosasaur vertebrae... it doesn't have the typical convex/concave features of any that I have seen... Any help in identifying this vertebra would be greatly appreciated.

This fossil appears to be a vertebra, and was located as a surface find, possibly in a Late Cretaceous area of McKinnley County, New Mexico (northwest portion of the state). The geological formation is not known. The fossil is hexagonal in shape, and measures about 6.5 cm. in diameter, and 6 cm. thick. Any ideas on the original type of beastie? Thanks.

Hello! This is my first post so be gentle I have a vertebrae from Morocco here that i cant seem to figure out. The owner of the collection I'm examining recalls purchasing it from Morocco, but doesn't recall if it comes from the Kem Kem beds or from the High Atlas Mountains. After some dusting and light acetone cleaning was able to determine that it is in fact a vertebra, but I'm not sure of the species, as the piece is slightly deformed and lacks processes. My best guess so far is a sauropod caudal vertebra, possibly Rebbachisaurus, but I'm having difficulty in finding any reputable sources that would confirm this. I could also understand if it came from a large theropod, but has lost its shape due to deformation. Sadly, most of my expertise is with Hell Creek fossils, so I'd really appreciate any help that can be offered Lastly, if the piece is of any significance (undescribed or poorly described species) it will most likely be donated to the local museum! So that would be cool. Thanks again!

Hi there. I found this on a field trip to a private quarry in Midlothian , TX (just south of Dallas). It was in limestone / shale in the ATCO formation, where there’s lots of shark teeth and fish bones. I’m pretty sure it’s been compressed as most of the shark spines I’ve seen are much more round and this is pretty oval shaped. Does anyone have any guesses as to species? Thanks in advance!

This vertebra is being sold as a Spinosaurus cervical vertebra, according to the seller it has a few restorations including a transverse process. Comparing it to other Spinosaurus cervical vertebrae I notice the holes on the sides of the centrum are missing as well as the downward pointing transverse processes for the cervical ribs. Instead it has lateral pointing transverse processes which doesn't fit the morphology of a cervical vertebra. Could this be a dorsal vertebra instead or a composite of a cervical and dorsal vertebra? Also, are there any more restorations on it that are incorrect? @jpc@LordTrilobite Location: Ifezouane Fm, Taouz, South Morocco Size: 27cm x 19cm (10.6" x 7.5")

Hi folks, I haven’t posted in a while, but I still visit and enjoy the forum most weeks. Thanks everyone. Just a curiosity. A find at the end of the day that, made me think….that’s a little odd, is that normal? I don’t know enough. but I know where to ask! Here is half of a vertebra. 2 inches across. At this site it can be anywhere from Cretaceous to Pleistocene marine. New Zealand. we’ve found Miocene and Pliocene cetaceans, seals and penguins. Plus cretaceous plesiosaur and Mosasaur vertebra. There is huge variation in the preservation of bone from these ages. This vert fragment doesn’t seem to fit into what I’ve seen from cetaceans or marine reptiles. But that’s just the bones I’ve seen. It has thick dense cortical bone and much more open cancellous bone than I’m used to for cetacean. But wondered since it’s small if it could be an ontogenetic thing. Thicker cortical bone in juveniles. Anyway just a curiosity and an opportunity me to learn something. Thanks

I recently spotted a Palaeophis vertebra for sale, labelled as having come from a Palaeophis typhaeus. The vertebra was found in the Ouled Abdoun basin in Morocco and is Ypresian in age. I have only every seen Palaeophis maghrebianus vertebrae for sale, so I was wondering if this was a mistaken ID. Thanks in advance for confirmation Othniel
