What vertebrates used to live in the Tethys Ocean around Romania 66 milion years ago?
Dumi posted a topic in Fossil ID
So I went fossil hunting today in Sangeorgiu de Meses, Romania. There is a cretaceous fossil site at the outskirts of the village full of marine fossilized life. I found a lot of bone fragments that seem to belong to marine reptiles, although I'm not quite sure about them. What are your thoughts?- 3 replies

Hi, yesterday i was in a quarry of gravels and ochre sand. I need help to identify to which animal they are (if this is possible). The marine vertebrates described in that quarry are : Odontaspis cuspidata, Carcharodon megalodon, Mesocetus aquitanus (or mesocetus), Champsodelphis macrogenius and squalodon. The other species that can be found in that department are : * from the Serravallian : Cosmopolitodus hastalis, aetobatus arcuatus ; * from the previous period, the Burdigalian : Pristiss aquitanicus, Hemipristis serra, Ginglymostome delfortriei, Myliobatis (myliobatis ; funiculatus ; leognasensis ; dimorphus ; microrhizus), Megaselachus megalodon, Notorynchus primigensis. 1) Concerning this first one, i am not sure this is a tooth.
