sharko69 Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Found this chunk of jaw today at NSR. Does not look like mosasaur. I am thinking fish of some sort. Possibly Xfish?? You can see a new tooth protruding out the top as well as the bottom section of the broken tooth on the bottom. Thank you you as always for any help.

-Andy- Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Xiphactinus vote from me too. The tooth cross section looks alike, and the size and profile matches that of a X-fish jaw. The jaw section pictures are from @JarrodB's gallery 3 Looking forward to meeting my fellow Singaporean collectors! Do PM me if you are a Singaporean, or an overseas fossil-collector coming here for a holiday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
