Good morning everyone!

 

Few months ago I found this jaw fragment in Ketvergiai quarry, Klaipeda district. The bone is 1.7 cm length and found in glacial boulder not in situ. 

I would think it can belong to aistopod but i need the professional ID, maybe someone would be able to identify family or order by this fragment? The big 2.6 cm diameter rhizodont scale is also found in this boulder. 

 

Best Regards

Definitely not aistopod. I'm also not 100% confident this is a jaw; there are some features I'd expect to see if that's what this was. I'd like to see this in person, though.
