dodo4 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 I found this on the beach near South Ponte Vedra, FL. I've been collecting fossils for a couple of years but have never seeing anything like it. I was not able to find anything similar via image search, probably because I could not describe it well. I would appreciate any help. It is about 3"x1.5"x1.5" and looks like a weird jaw to me.

Al Dente Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 It is a pharyngeal tooth plate from a black drum. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodo4 Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 Thank you Al! I guess it was not "unusual" for you. I have a few more pieces I cant identify, should I post it here or start a new "I cant ID" post? 2 hours ago, Al Dente said: It is a pharyngeal tooth plate from a black drum.

abyssunder Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Maybe the two specimen from here are in the same preservation status, confirming that Eric is right, although they are from North Carolina. 1 " We are not separate and independent entities, but like links in a chain, and we could not by any means be what we are without those who went before us and showed us the way.
