trap replied to trap's topic in Fossil ID
Hey guys! reposting this with better description and High res pictures with a better camera and measurements. Found this near a natural spring on a hill cliff side in central Texas on the surface after clearing trees from land on the side of a hill kinda of cliff like and eroded. the specimen is hard and heavy, lots of porus holes(see pics) did the lick test and seems like more of a a fossil thank a rock but Im a newbie. i did some recon on the geologic data base for rock type and time period in my area and added that in the images. it tells a little bit about the geological makeup here. Im kinda on the border of two of them. any thoughts are much appreciated and thank you all so much for your time.- 9 replies

Heterosalenia sp. (genus ascertained by JohnJ) Bottom of Unit 2, Lower Member, Glen Rose Formation, Trinity Group Albian (Lower Cretaceous) These odd little Salenids were first noticed by JohnJ many years ago. I was lucky enough to find another slightly larger specimen. This one was hiding in my collection amongst some more common species. These are now being studied and properly described by an actual paleontologist!- 1 comment

For years now I have been trying top get a better handle on the various small teeth I find in the Albian age rocks of Central Texas. I have A number of different forms. Finsley, 1996, describes a single genus Uranoplosus as "Lower Cretaceous, Duck Creek/Fort Worth Fms". I have another publication "Lower Vertebrate Faunas of the Trinity Division in North-Central Texas, J.T. Thurmond, 1974, that lists many other genera (not Uranoplosus). But these two associated teeth are a bit different. Note the rather hooked and tapered shape. Anyone ever encountered something similar or can suggest another reference or two? The specimen is from Unit 3, Upper Member of the Glen Rose Formation (Albian) of Kendall County, Texas.
