PA Fossil Finder Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 I was searching some of the Merritt Island micro matrix (the famous "frog toe" matrix) I had gotten from tff member Sacha when I found this tooth: It's about 21 mm. long, and it is from the Late Pleistocene Melbourne Bone Bed near Merritt Island, Florida. I was initially very surprised! How did this relatively large tooth end up in a bag of microfossil matrix? I think it is some sort of canid or felid canine tooth. I'm not very good with mammal teeth, so I would appreciate any help with identification. Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old bones Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Stephen, I just saw this. Yours makes two large teeth that were in that matrix! I posted mine last week or so, and did not get an ID on it either... At least yours is complete. (mine is a split). Julianna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
