Pressing my luck but is anyone able to tell me anything about this big brook bone fragment. Perhaps just whether mammal or reptile or other. And I know my photos don’t make this any easier but an iPhone 5 is all I have. As always, thank you for sharing your knowledge

I’d say ratfish jaw, looks kind of like one I found a while ago... I’m not positive, though.

It’s a ratfish palatine mouth plate
