ynot Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 (edited) Hey Y'all, I finished picking through the micro matrix I collected in February, and was sorting the finds when I noticed these little beauties! Had to check the ID before posting them here. (I was wrong again.) Anyways thought Y'all might like to look. Triakis sp , Hound shark teeth scale in photos is in millimeters.

siteseer Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Tony, As of 2008 and using paleomagnetic data, the age of the bonebed was narrowed down to within a few hundred thousand years of 15.5 million years ago. Thank You. Middle Miocene-- 12 to 17 million years old. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
