Bobby Rico Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Thank you @Moozillion I had it about 6 year now. Mrs Rico brought it for me one birthday as we both love tortoises. I have found some Turtle shell on the Jurassic costs very long time ago . I will add a picture for you to see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paleoworld-101 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I'll add some more recent finds. This thread has become a great pictorial resource of finds! Turtle shell fragments from the Palaeocene aged Upnor Formation at Beltinge, England. The rippled shell is Trionyx. Not sure about the other two. Crocodile tooth from the Upnor Formation (Palaeocene), Beltinge, England. These are rare at this location. Possibly Diplocynodon? Turtle limb bone, i'm thinking a distal femur. Again from the Upnor Formation of England. 56 million years old. Alligatorid vertebrae from Diplocynodon hantoniensis. Found at Bouldnor Beach, Isle of Wight, England. 33 million years old (Oligocene). Diplocynodon hantoniensis alligator scutes, and a fragment of jugal (the most pale coloured piece). Bouldnor Formation, England. Trionyx shell pieces. Bouldnor Formation, England. Emys shell pieces. Bouldnor Formation, England. 1 "In Africa, one can't help becoming caught up in the spine-chilling excitement of the hunt. Perhaps, it has something to do with a memory of a time gone by, when we were the prey, and our nights were filled with darkness..." -Eternal Enemies: Lions And Hyenas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a hoodoo (photo) with an 'explosion' of petrified wood above and dino bone in the light bentonite clay. Isolated Turtle material is relatively common but I came across a 'turtle graveyard' layer in this same hoodoo. Perhaps a dozen or so individual turtles. Partial shell in photo about 20cms across. Also lots of dino bone ...so bone under shell likely dino. Remote locale and hot. Marked the spot with my GPS and may return some day to put together some turtle jigsaw puzzles. That is very cool! I’d find it hard to leave. Of course the heat might do the trick if I were running low on water. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud the Dinosaur King Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I've got this shell fragment from a member of the genus Trionyx. It still has some rib attached to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
