hokietech96 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Can anyone help ID these two shark teeth. I inherited my Grandfathers collection and I am trying to group them into shark type. I believe these are all tiger shark teeth. If you anyone can take a quick glance and confirm that would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance for any comments.

Coco Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Hi, I think yes, but in the second pic some of ones (right side) are in black (without light).

Coco Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I think all of them are tiger shark. But wait for the opinion of other members.

Praefectus Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 The majority of your teeth are from the extinct tiger shark, Galeocerdo mayumbensis. There are a few at the bottom of your first picture that are the tiger shark species, Galeocerdo cuvier. You also have 1 Hemipristis serra tooth.
