All Things Ocean Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Wondering what the shark teeth experts think of these. Found on man-made dredge island in Savannah River. I'm thinking A is great white and. B might be a bull shark, but am not positive and don't have guesses about the others. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 A,C,D Carcharodon hastalis. B Sand Tiger(?). E Bull or dusky. F need clearer picture to tell. 1 Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys." Will Rogers said: " Some of them didn't spring far enough." My Fossil collection - My Mineral collection My favorite thread on TFF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jersey Devil Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 I agree with Tony except I think B looks more like Isurus desori. 1 “You must take your opponent into a deep dark forest where 2+2=5, and the path leading out is only wide enough for one.” ― Mikhail Tal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F is probably a carcharhinus sp. “...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 April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 A. Cosmopolitodus/Carcharodon hastalis (anterior upper, broad-form aka xiphodon) B. Isurus desori (anterior upper?) C. Cosmopolitodus/Carcharodon hastalis (anterior or lateral upper, broad-form) D. Cosmopolitodus/Carcharodon hastalis (lateral or posterior upper, broad-form) E. Carcharhinus sp. (cf. leucas) F. Carcharhinus sp. (cf. brachyurus or closely related species within the genus) This is just my take on the ID, some of the exact species or tooth type may be wrong, but I am positive with the genera. 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...

It would have been better if you could get your subject matter into that bit of sunlight showing at the bottom of the page. Trying to I'D something in the shadows always makes for a challenge.
