DPS Ammonite Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Glyptodon armor.

garyc Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 What is the size of this. Can you add something in the picture for scale?. It doesn’t really look like Glyptodon to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 They are ray teeth very common at Brownies Picture from elasmo site Myliobatis 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 I agree with troodon. Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys." Will Rogers said: " Some of them didn't spring far enough."

Al Dente Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 As others have said, it is part of a ray plate. It is the smaller teeth to the side of the plate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innocentx Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 @Troodon @Al Dente Okay. Seeing it now. Nice specimen. "Journey through a universe ablaze with changes" Phil Ochs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimTexan Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Very cool looking. Great pics, with the exception of a scale of size. It could be the size of tire tread for all we know or only a few cm wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
