TeethCollector Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Hi everyone! I want to introduce some new additions to my teeth collections. 1. Nodosaur tooth from Judith River Formation This tooth is from Hill Co. Montana. Has nice set of serrations, and 10 mm wide. There are two genus of Nodosaur known from Judith River F. : Edmontonia and Palaeoscincus, thus, this is a Nodosaurid indet. 2. Pygmy sperm whale (Kogiopsis) tooth from Hawthorn Formation This tooth has no tip, but have enamel and root. This is slightly larger than 3 inches. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooted Carcharodontosaurid tooth from Kem Kem Formation I already posted this tooth to Question&Answer category, so I'll just link the post here. The total length of the tooth is approximately 86mm including 30mm of crown. 4. Phytosaur tooth from Redonda Formation This phytosaur tooth is from the Redonda Formation, New Mexico. 32mm Large, thick tooth with nice serrations. The only phytosaur known from the Redonda formation is Redondasaurus. So I would name this a 'Redondasaurus' . 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praefectus Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Nice additions. The serrations on the phytosaur tooth are sharp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePhysicist Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Teeth are some of the coolest, most collectible fossils. You've got some really nice ones; looking forward to seeing more! 1 1 "Argumentation cannot suffice for the discovery of new work, since the subtlety of Nature is greater many times than the subtlety of argument." - Carl Sagan "I was born not knowing and have had only a little time to change that here and there." - Richard Feynman Collections: Hell Creek Microsite | Hell Creek/Lance | Dinosaurs | Sharks | Squamates | Post Oak Creek | North Sulphur River | Lee Creek | Aguja | Permian | Devonian | Triassic | Harding Sandstone Instagram: @thephysicist_tff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeethCollector Posted August 18, 2021 Author Share Posted August 18, 2021 5. Dinosaur egg from Nanxiong Formation I already have posted the photo and explanations in the link above. 6. Hybodontidae spine from Kem Kem This is very large Hybodontidae shark spine from Kem Kem, Morocco. There were 4 types of Hybodontidae shark genus found in Kem Kem Group, and I guess this spine is from one of them. - Acrodontidae - Bahariyodon - Distobatus - Tribodus 7. Crotalocephalus trilobite from Morocco Very common trilobite, exact locality is unknown. This specimen lacks a left spine(pathology?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
