AlaPaleo Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Hi! I found some pieces of mesozoic bones. I know that it is just pieces, but may be it is possible to ID some of it. I found it near Ili river in Kazakhstan. It belongs to cretaceous period for sure. Tyrannosauridae, Ankylosauridae, Titanosauridae, Triceratops Marsh and some other types were found here earlier. I use sm. scale. One more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossildude19 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Hello, I'm not sure you can make an ID from these chunks - there may not be enough identifying characteristics left on them to point towards an ID. @Troodon 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Troodon Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Like Fossildude19 said the bones are to fragmented to make an ID. There is nothing visible that says they are from theropods so most likely they are from Herbivores like Ceratopsian, Hadrosaur etc, , . More complete bones will allow us a better opportunity to identify them. If there are bone fragments to be found be on the lookout for teeth which should be in the same area and much easier to identify. Good luck, love to see dinosaur material from your country.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think everything pictured here is bone chunks - scutes are usually more dense.
