Fitch1979 Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Hey all, I've got a ID-question myself now: I'm not sure about the 2nd from above? Would others be right? (I can 't get my hands on more pictures) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flx Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Regarding the 2nd one: I think it's a crocodile jaw fragment. Maybe Elosuchus. I am not an expert though, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Jaw looks like Croc as well as the femur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordTrilobite Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Though it's very hard to see on the photo, the vertebra looks like a croc vert that Troodon has showed before. Also seems similar to a croc neural arch I have. The first jaw is definitely croc. The second jaw you labeled as gavial looks very much like the upper jaw of an Elosuchus. It's not related to actual Gharials, but to Sarcosuchus. 1 Olof Moleman AKA Lord Trilobite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Andy- Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Looks like two croc jaws to me. 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...

Fitch1979 Posted March 11, 2018 Author Share Posted March 11, 2018 you guys are fantastic all together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordTrilobite Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Here's some more Elosuchus reference for both the jaws. You can probably look at the sutures on the upper jaw to confirm that it is indeed an Elosuchus upper jaw. Olof Moleman AKA Lord Trilobite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
