Major Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Pretty much all pictures are self explanatory, but those that need it I will type some info in, such as the smaller specimens: ^My most recent fossil, found in a limestone rock, in fact was at one time part of my drive-way! 0_0 v Various ray teeth/mouth plates ^First of two meg teeth I purchased (only fossils I ever purchased) v Second of two ^ my gator tooth Afraid they don't all fit, I guess I made them too large, again.

Guest bmorefossil Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Any idea what kind they are? or any other teeth? the first one is just a regular meg, but the other one you would need to know where it was found to know exactly what it is hey and dont feel bad about your collection size, everyone has to start somewhere looks like the normal stuff in the other pictures, lemons, hemis, ect.

FossilFreak Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Fossilkid, Check out all of the shark tooth pictures on elasmo.com under the lee creek section. I know it's not the same as your area, but their will be a lot of overlapping teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Posted October 24, 2008 Author Share Posted October 24, 2008 Thanks! Also, I like to post findings, so here it is: based on: http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p127/fossilguide/ray.jpg and http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=htt...ficial%26sa%3DN (scroll down to the bottom) my fossils can almost all be identified. the rectangle with bumps (lol) is a portion of a ray's stinger, while the ridged ones are dermal scutes, and according to the fossil expert from UF, the hexagonal-shaped ones (one is obvious, the other broken and weathered) are dental plates. still not certain about one, but hey, good start.
