AnyArthropod Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 (edited) Hello fellow fossil fans, recently I have been fossil hunting on zandmotor again. During this fossilize trip I found a piece of bone that bore a slight resemblance to a piece i never have been able to ID I found a few years ago. I put them next to eachother in this post. Any ideas? Thanks for looking, Edited May 19, 2022 by AnyArthropod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjaak Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Fish bones. Someocal collectors are specialised in these. Do you know the WPZ ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Pristis Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Your Zandmotor finds remind me of the proximal end of fish premaxillae. 1 http://pristis.wix.com/the-demijohn-page What seest thou else In the dark backward and abysm of time? ---Shakespeare, The Tempest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
