brad hinkelman Posted January 6, 2017 Author Share Posted January 6, 2017 and what vertebrate these belonged to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramon Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 The biggest vertebrae is probably from a mosasaur, and the smallest one is from a fish. Hope this helps!!!

Al Dente Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Hard to tell what the first one is, maybe a shark tooth root lobe. The second is from Enchodus. The large vertebra is from a bony fish, the other is shark or Ray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ynot Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 I think the first 2 are crab claw steinkerns, agree with Al Dente on the verts. Tony Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

fifbrindacier Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 I agree with @Al Dente for the vertebrae. "On ne voit bien que par le coeur, l'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux."

brad hinkelman Posted January 7, 2017 Author Share Posted January 7, 2017 I'm wondering if the first could be a Squatiniformes tooth...angel shark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 The tooth could also easily be Enchodus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frankh8147 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 The large vert. is shark, and take a look at the 6th picture you posted of the tooth - it has an indented area (I'm sure there a scientific term for that) between the tooth and bone that I see on all my similar Enchodus pieces. I'm pretty sure it's Enchodus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JarrodB Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 The large vert is not Mosasaur it's most likely bony fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
