Lance Formation Fossils ID

Recommended Posts

I have two fossils from the lance formation that I need help in identifying. The first one is I think maybe an ankylosaur tooth and the second one seems similar to the one from this topic http://www.thefossilforum.com/index.php?/topic/120940-lance-formation-toe-bone/ but it's bigger, and straight. These fossils were found in the Lance fm of Weston County, Wyoming. Thanks for any help.

The tooth

The tooth is a nodosaur and Denversaurus is described from there.

The other looks like a reptlian limb bone

Just wondering, how can you tell that it is a nodosaur tooth as opposed to an ankylosaur tooth?
