hokietech96 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Hi. I went to Big Brook again on Friday for my weekly quick trip. We had a really bad rain storm mid week so the the water was the highest I have ever seen it and the creek floor was like quicksand because of the 8-10 inches of fresh sand and other snarge. Every time I took a step my foot would sink down. The first 2 hours was nothing special. More of a struggle getting around. But the last hour I found a very productive spot. I posted one of the finds in fossil I’d. A big thanks you to @The Jersey Devil for all is patients and help with ID. Enjoy the pics. Hope I ID everything correctly. Plesiosaur tooth. Super excited about this one! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the teeth you have labeled as Scapanorhynchus are worn teeth of other species. The tooth in the top left corner of that pic might be a Hybodus tooth, can’t see it too clearly. 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...

Thanks for the clarification ID. It’s tough to ID some of these. I will take an individual picture of the upper left in the morning. Thanks again for your help.

Here is a better picture of that one tooth that could be hybrodus. Thanks for taking a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never mind, it’s not Hybodont. Most likely an abraded goblin. “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...
hokietech96 Posted October 22, 2019 Author Share Posted October 22, 2019 Thanks for taking a look. Some of the other teeth that are worn that are not goblin, are the identifiable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly it’s not even worth labeling the worn ones as there are a lot of teeth around. “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...
