Hi All,

here are a couple of bones found today. The teeth suggest jaw bones but both are poorly preserved and clearly not from the same beast...

Any help much appreciated as always

thank you....

I took the liberty of lightening up/rotating some of your pics.

Which Cambridge are you from? I'm guessing this may be a Cretaceous find based on your avatar. Would that be correct?

The second specimen (photo 3, photo 4 and photo 5) reminds me of a Hybodus fin spine. Anyone else see a resemblance?

thanks Kosmoceras,

that makes more sense, it definately has some 'teeth' but not the dental vareity perhaps. 3 black barbs though.
