Jfox Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I found this fossil I need to clean up a bit. It's 7cm long, smooth and more or less straight. I found it in Richmond, Australia. I think it's a Plesiosaur fossil but I am wondering if anyone has second opinions or can confirm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Welcome to the Forum. Looks a bit more like a belemnite, to me. Plesiosaur teeth have striations, and are slightly curved.

Ramon Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Agreed with Fossildude19, it's a belemnite "Without fossils, no one would have ever dreamed that there were successive epochs in the formation of the earth" - Georges Cuvier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifbrindacier Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 I agree, belemnite. "On ne voit bien que par le coeur, l'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux."

Mike from North Queensland Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Agree belemnite typical of finds from the quarry at Richmond. My preferred fossicking site. Mike D'Arcy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
