Notidanodon Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 All I was told is this tooth was from England, it looks like an otodus to me , which is most likely as they are a lot more common than English megs and it matches the colours of London clay also I can’t see any serrations 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gigantoraptor Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Otodus megalodon does not have cusps, but I don't know what species occur in the area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomWhite Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Do you know if it’s from the Isle Of Sheppey? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pterygotus Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Not a meg I think. I think you’re right on the ID. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darktooth Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 It is an Otodus obliguus. 3 I like Trilo-butts and I cannot lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomWhite Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 I reckon it is a very big Otodus Obiquus as mentioned by others. If he tells you where exactly it is from I’m sure you’d be able to get an answer though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
