eannis6 Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Hello all! I found these on a recent trip to Brownies beach. I am not completely sure but I have an idea of what these may be. Can I have your opinions? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eannis6 Posted October 22, 2017 Author Share Posted October 22, 2017 @ynot @WhodamanHD what do you both think this is? Thanks again! Serrations are easily visible in person, just slightly worn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Physogaleus contortus (GIBBES, 1849) extinct Tiger-like shark. But it is hard to be sure with a fragment that is so worn. 1 Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys." Will Rogers said: " Some of them didn't spring far enough."

PaleoRon Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 In your first pic the tooth on the left is a Notorhynchus primegenius upper parasymphyseal. The tooth on the right is a Physogaleus contortus parasymphyseal tooth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem, most of this I've learned from others on the forum (I must admit, I went to brownies for the first time today, all the shark teeth I've found prior to today have been Paleocene), so I'm happy to pass it on! 1 “...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...

That’s awesome! I use waders to access further south...it seems larger teeth are down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I thought, the cliffs are at a thirty degree angle, and i could see the layer (zone four I think) peeking out. I only walked out to the point, as water visibility and tide were against me. I'll post my finds tommorow, nothing special and all small. I did get half peccary tooth, one hemi, some little chunkosauruses and lemon shark teeth. I'll definitely be down there again and I'll take the long walk. Who knows, maybe I'll run into you! 1 “...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...
