Hi all - I found this fragment in Central Texas today, Austin area. Likely Cretaceous or Pleistocene, I think. Is it a bone or something else? Any ideas? thanks!
-
Thanks in advance. Any help you can give this newbie will be appreciated! I found this on east coast of central Florida, about a mile west of the Indian River Lagoon. It weighs about 10 grams. Most of the vertebra is hard like stone. Except on two of the sides, those cream color areas are like very densely packed powder. I've scraped away a lot of it and am wondering if I should try to clean it all out. Does an ultra sonic cleaner help with an item like this? Also, the concrete like deposits that are filling the openings. Can I aggressively clean those holes out? Any chance it's a xiphactinus?

Barasaurus fossil real?
Mantelliceras posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello everyone, I have recently acquired this Barasaurus fossil from Madagascar and I was wondering if it really is 100% natural as the seller has stated many times to me. I have read a couple of threads in this forum regarding Barasaurus fakes but still have many doubts. If possible, I would greatly appreciate any input from this forum’s experts regarding this piece. Do you think it's real? Please find attached some photos and thanks a lot for your help:- 7 replies

Would love some background on this. I've seen Green River Formation fossils with big turtles before but never a tiny little fossil turtle. Unfortunately I don't know the provenance or the age. Any ID on this one? The scale in the background is centimeters. Thanks.

Hi all - found these two today in an area that had some new spots exposed due to erosion from recent rains. I found this vertebrae and another fossil (I think?) close to each other. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!

I'm interested in a few of these turtle fossils supposedly found in the Neuse river in North Carolina. They are also labeled as Cretaceous. Do you think this is accurate or could they be from another age and or locality?
