NevadaHunter Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 (edited) Hi all, I recently found this tooth in a formation dated to the middle Pliocene in Nevada. I believe it belongs to Antilocapridae, possibly a pronghorn. I’m looking to see if any one on here is familiar with western fauna of this period and could give me some more insight. thanks in advance!

siteseer Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 What else have you found there? My first thought was that it's a goat tooth but it could be antelope. This is a job for Larry. @fossillarry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of bone material but nothing identifiable other than those two things-we’ve only had a chance to search maybe 2 hrs at the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
