Ropterus Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Hello everyone! I was sorting through some of the teeth the family and I collected over the past year and came across a few I wasn't quite certain about. These were all found at Calvert Cliffs in Maryland. The first looks like it's on part of a jaw. The second I was guessing was a small Mako, but not sure of the species. Third tooth I'm not sure about. Fourth tooth I am hoping is a small meg, but again, not certain. Fifth tooth I'm not sure of. I know the pics aren't great but it does have a small root on the bottom and the tooth has the shape of a tiny chocolate chip. Thank you all in advance. This is a great forum, and all of your knowledge and experience is greatly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimlock Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 The serrations on the one tooth look more like great white than meg to me. Can you take a couple more photos to help the id. Nice finds. The little thresher is very cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
