The Ptychodus knowledge base just expanded...great specimen and research.

 

Congratulations, Ramo!

Great contribution to science! Will also be relevant to us in Texas too.

Very sweet! Major congrats on that one!

 

Too bad the paper is behind a paywall. Can you post an image here of that tooth set again?

 

 

Cheers.

Most Excellent!

I dont have any good photos of the tooth set, but the paper has fantastic photos.  I could take a picture of one of those, but I'm not sure that is allowed.

I'm assuming you have contact with the authors of the paper. You could ask them for the photo (now that the paper has been published). I'm sure they'd be willing to share with the fine folks here on the forum. :)

 

 

Cheers.

Here is a picture of the toothset.  I wanted to edit my original post, and add the words "with photo"  to the title, but I couldn't figure it out.  

(If you join the Kansas Academy of Science, there are often many articles about cretaceous fossils in their publications. )

I edited the title for you, @Ramo.  

 

Again, an amazing associated find!  Thanks for showing us.

Thanks again for making this available to the scientists so that our collective knowledge has grown a bit.

This was an amazing associated Ptychodus dentition find! Thanks for your contribution to science!  P. anonymous has always been a mystery to me.  Now, with an associated set, it is a little less of a mystery. More to come from Shawn Hamm on a younger Ptychodus species first mentioned in your specimen's subject paper.
