Miocene_Mason Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Those unknown teeth are mosasaurs either of different species or different parts of the mouth. There are a few on the forum that can help you determine the genus and position of the teeth. Nice collection btw! “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "unknown teeth" look more like teeth from Morocco, to me. But I meant the ones in your previous part 1 collection, but it looks like people have already pointed them out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miocene_Mason Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Just now, J-Bot said: The two square ones, the others are from Wyoming Im not so sure about that... kentucky is not known for its lagerstätte fish fossils, and the few they have do not look like this, these look to be from the green river formation of Wyoming as well still nice though! “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macrophyseter Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Nice collection you got there, but like last time, I'll point out some mislabels. -The unknown teeth are mosasaur teeth (Prognathodon and Liodon to be exact), and they do not look like they are from Wyoming, more like Morocco where mosasaur teeth are littered in the thousands. -I think the ammonite has a possibility of being a goniatite, but I guess people can't really tell the difference, nor care about it. -None of your fish are from Kentucky (maybe you just bought it from there :P), they are clearly from the Green River Formation which is in mostly Wyoming but also parts of Utah and Colorado. The species of fish look like Knightia. If you don't know the id of a fossil, feel free to simply ask in the fossil id section, and us with a few experts out there will do our best to accurately identify it. If you're a fossil nut from Palos Verdes, San Pedro, Redondo Beach, or Torrance, feel free to shoot me a PM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doushantuo Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I care about it enough to be aware of the term "gonatite" *spell** cough **error** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macrophyseter Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 oh shoot, i just realized I skipped an "i" there. Thanks for the heads up If you're a fossil nut from Palos Verdes, San Pedro, Redondo Beach, or Torrance, feel free to shoot me a PM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
