fifbrindacier Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 The one on the bottom right might be of a tiger shark. 1 "On ne voit bien que par le coeur, l'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux."

sixgill pete Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 They are all tiger shark, but the actual species can only be determined if we know the age of the teeth. Galeocerdo species are known from the Eocene till the present. Do you know the age of the teeth or the deposit they were found in? 1 Bulldozers and dirt Bulldozers and dirt behind the trailer, my desert Them red clay piles are heaven on earth I get my rocks off, bulldozers and dirt Patterson Hood; Drive-By Truckers May 2016 May 2012 Aug 2013, May 2016, Apr 2020 Oct 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max-fossils Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 As @sixgill pete said, the location of where you found the teeth and the age of them is very important! But I agree with tiger shark. My best guess is Galeocerdo aduncus, but I am not sure. Cool finds and best regards, Max Max Derème "I feel an echo of the lightning each time I find a fossil.

fossiling Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 tiger shark, the serrated edge is the easiest way to see. Not hard to identify at first glance if you have the knowledge. Keep looking! They're everywhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixgill pete Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 6 minutes ago, Channel Cat 2 said: They were found in the Chandler Bridge formation. If these are from the Chandler Bridge, which is Oligocene I believe they are Physogaleus aduncus. 2 Bulldozers and dirt Bulldozers and dirt behind the trailer, my desert Them red clay piles are heaven on earth I get my rocks off, bulldozers and dirt Patterson Hood; Drive-By Truckers May 2016 May 2012 Aug 2013, May 2016, Apr 2020 Oct 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
