Fat Boy Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Do you have a pic showing the labial side of the tooth? I also think it's a hastalis tooth, but... ...I'm looking at that shoulder, could be retroflexus maybe? Kevin Wilson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Boy Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Like I said, you're probably correct about the ID. I always thought that the distinction was more conclusive when viewing the labial side of the tooth, or even a side view of the tooth. Do all retroflexus teeth have a ridge on the lingual side? Other than elasmo.com and Kent's book, are there any good publications describing I. retroflexus? Maybe this would be a cool is a discussion for a different thread, i.e. comparison of mako teeth. If anything maybe we'd get some cool pics of more teeth posted! Kevin Wilson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmorefossil Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 yes a look at the other side is a better way to tell but this isnt one why you have one you can just look at the tooth and know that its a retro. here are a few from my last trip down there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
