hokietech96 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Hi. All these are out of the ordinary finds for me and I need some help with IDing. I think I know, which means I am wrong and need help. Thanks as always for any feedback. 1. 100% retile tooth. It stinks that it is all beat up but I will take it! I am thinking croc but maybe plesiosaur 2. I believe this is a reptile toe bone? Anyone know what type? it a little over a half an inch 1 Link to post Share on other sites
hokietech96 Posted August 27, 2021 Author Share Posted August 27, 2021 3. Most likely I’m wrong but are these two pieces of corpolite? 4. No idea. Looks like something. Almost a perfect circle. 5. Fin spine? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
hokietech96 Posted August 27, 2021 Author Share Posted August 27, 2021 6. Jaw to something? Or a piece of shell? 7. I had to show this tooth because it was covered in matrix and after I cleaned it up the colors different for big Brook and it’s extremely sharp and just really great preservation. It’s only half an inch. I believe it’s mackerel (appendicular) 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Al Dente Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 I think your first tooth is an Enchodus tooth. They have the irregular cross section. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I really thought I got my first croc tooth. I thought the hole at the bottom indicates reptile?? Like I said in the beginning… most likely I am wrong. That stinks. I did find some amazing teeth over 15 hours of hunting that I will share later. Thank you so much for the response! Link to post Share on other sites
Trevor Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 1st is enchodus 2nd is some fish / reptile bone, not sure where on the body, or what class of animal 3rd is coprolite 4th (the second coprolite + small black rock) are concretions. however, the ID of 'coprolite 2' might change with better pictures 5th is bone or petrified wood, but I cant see it clearly enough 6th not sure 7th Cretolamna 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks so much for the feedback. I have to be honest I really thought my beat up tooth would be my first croc. Still a cool find. Excited to find that reddish coprolite! I’m I correct that is from a shark? Seems thinner than my first one i found this summer. thanks again for taking the time to look through my finds! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
