I have a bunch of turtle shell chunks from the cretaceous of MS, as well as a partial skeleton i'm working on, not much to show yet, but this is my best so far. Cretaceous sea turtle skull internal mold from either the Escondido or Anacacho Fm in Texas. I do wish the bone was still present, and there is still some bone remnants hanging on here and there, but I haven't really seen anything like this anywhere else. I found it in gravel about the same size of the skull and somehow happened to spot it from about 15 ft away and know exactly what it was before I picked it up. That's a rare find.

That one gator tooth is the largest I've seen. Dang! A nickle fits on the base, surface find after Irma, I bet that gator was at least 18 ft.

Here it is (please pardon the misspelling of an old label) - specimen about 9/16 inches or about 1.4cm. The photo doesn't capture the fine serrations on the cutting edges.

Ash Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Is that tooth in a piece of jaw or matrix?

Ash Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Well, it got bigger when @Jesuslover340 found more of the bugger.. here it is now.

Ash Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 That would be amazing... fingers crossed over Christmas it happens.. don't think it will personally but I'm hoping! Even before the addition of this new piece it was already the most complete lower jaw found.. so now it's even better "Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe" - Saint Augustine"Those who can not see past their own nose deserve our pity more than anything else."

Moozillion Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 This was recently identified for me on this forum!!!!! BIIIGGG THANKS to all!!!! It is Anosteira maomingensis from the Late Eocene, in Guangdong, China. I understand there may be some controversy as to whether it was in other areas as well. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
