Mosasaur Tooth Identification - Navesink Formation (Monmouth County, NJ)
Masonk posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi All, Last week I found this Mosasaur tooth in one of the Brooks in Monmouth County, NJ (Navesink Formation - Late Cretaceous). While in the brook, a guide from the Monmouth Museum was onsite leading a small group of college students. He identified the tooth as Halisaurus platyspondylus. Had a great conversation with the gentlemen as well, so a nice bonus. Another, more experienced individual contacted me after I posted the tooth on a local FB group. He has several similar teeth, and while not completely disagreeing with Hailisaurus, suggested Prognathodon sp. may possibly be a better fit? It's debatable based on conversations he's had with other's more experienced than him. In any case, I figured there must be several Mosasaur experts on here who may be able to weigh in on the subject. Any opinions/discussion is appreciated. I'm still learning, so this is all helpful to me. Thanks in advance!- 7 replies
