zekky Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 I recently purchased a few mammal teeth that seemed odd or rare. But since I am a dinosaur expert I don't really now much about them. Just looking for help on what they are, and if the labels given are accurate. Tooth #1, after some research I realize the age is off a bit, probably closer to 2.5-5MYA based on newer research of the Quiburis. 0.5" tall and 0.5" wide Tooth #2 same formation, probably camel? 1.25" long. Tooth #3, from Indonesia claims to be a Hippo molar. 1" tall, 1.5" wide. Pretty cool tooth. Location known, formation not known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Sorry cannot help with an ID but here is a publication for that area. I believe your in Camel Canyon which is near Mammoth. 12AZNeogene.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zekky Posted April 2, 2017 Author Share Posted April 2, 2017 Thanks Troodon. These were collected a long time ago I believe in that region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Pristis Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 No. 1 does appear to be a suid. You can research Perchoerus sp. for your location. No. 2 appears to be an equus horse incisor, not camel. No. 3 does appear to be to be a hippo tooth. I can't vouch for the name on the label. http://pristis.wix.com/the-demijohn-page What seest thou else In the dark backward and abysm of time? ---Shakespeare, The Tempest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
