Walking a NJ cretaceous stream and this popped out. Is it ratfish related? Also, interestingly, found these three Enchodus fangs/palatine all within 5 feet of each other.

Hello everyone, I went fossiling today, April 14th. I got to Ramanessin Brook around 9:00 AM and ended at about 2:45 PM. The day began slowly, with me haphazardly choosing places to sift. From all the boot prints on the ground it was apparent that many people had gone surface scanning a few days before. I did find one or two teeth on the surface in the middle of the gravel bar, they must have missed them. While I was hunting there was a caravan of senior citizens hiking on one of the trails. They thought I was panning for gold but when I showed them the finds they were stunned. Some of them had never seen sharks' teeth before which seemed odd. One woman with a very heavy German accent was particularly interested and I was happy to give her some of my finds. After that interaction I went back to hunting. With the finds beginning to dwindle in the area I was searching, I moved on. Not much was had further upstream unfortunately. A few minutes later I cut my finger on a stray wire from my breaking sifter and then hiked back to my dad, who was sleeping in his hammock, about a mile or so away. The day was pretty good, my best finds being a Xiphactinus sp. and Ratfish jaw section. Bone, Vertebrae, and one (or two) Xiphactinus Teeth Ghost Shrimp Parts, Sawfish Rostral Spines, Small Vert, Pychodont tooth, and Unidentified Mammal Tooth Ray Teeth
