6ix Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 While this crab wasnt too special, it was the first I found with my brother, so I have been using it as an "experience" crab... then I found the flabellum and thought it was cool so have left it there... Now I have a little bit better prepping gear and more patience I investigated something else I saw on the top... Of course I have a suspicion but have been wrong just about every time... Its about 3-4mm long. Can anyone give me any idea what it may be? Apologies for photos, they were taken with my cell as I cant find my macros for my dslr. Waipara formation - 12MYA.

Waimanu 1 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Not too many shark teeth found there. Could be a Carcharius but would need to be complete for ID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
