Some New Jersey Collecting

Over the weekend I made a trip to New Jersey to explore the cretaceous stream banks as well as an Eocene site that I scouted.

Shark teeth assemblage (Half inch cube):

And finally the Eocene shark tooth. Only managed to find one as when I got to the site I was pretty worn and tired. If anyone could tell what species it is would be a huge help.

The species for the Eocene / Early Miocene site is Sand Tiger, most likely Carcharias cuspidata.
