Foshunter Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Nice teeth, larger teeth look like Isurus praecursor? The large sifting screens are something that a sifter any where in the world would like to have. What size openings do they have?----Tom Grow Old Kicking And Screaming !!"Don't Tread On Me" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamalama Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Wow! you've got yourself quite the tooth site there, Gery! I love the gastropod with the predation hole. -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers. When a roadcut presents itself, they tend to lurch and weave. To them, the roadcut is a portal, a fragment of a regional story, a proscenium arch that leads their imaginations into the earth and through the surrounding terrain. - John McPheeIf I'm going to drive safely, I can't do geology. - John McPheeCheck out my Blog for more fossils I've found: http://viewsofthemahantango.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siteseer Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Nala, Judging from the mix of teeth, the site appears to be Middle Eocene (Lutetian-Bartonian) - similar to what you would find at Bracklesham Bay, UK.
