Identify this tooth please

[butchndad]

Hello

i found this yesterday in big brook. It is 1 1/8 inches and has 2 ridges the entire length but not serrated.  It does have the typical curve of an enchodus but I think it’s a fish tooth. Your help greatly appreciated

It is an Enchodus petrosus/ferox. They don’t really have much of a curve on the palatine teeth, just straight. Xiphactinus is typically curved.

I have  a fish tooth fund in NSR, but curved.  So this must been Xiphactinus?

Thanks.  I thought that was a Enchodus, but sidetracked a bit.
