Found black water diving has several symmetrical groves never found anything like it color and feel of it makes me think bone. Haven’t found anything like it online so at this point think it might be a rock so figured I would ask here before discarding it. Found along with vertebrae and baleen whale rib bones and has a similar feel.

Since I suddenly realized that I didn't have one of these yet in my collection, I started bidding for this Great White tooth from South Africa and was successful. It got stuck for over a week in some Italian post office, but it finally arrived today. I'm pleased as punch with it. Slant length is 3cm. and there's just a tiny chip out of one side of the tip that one hardly notices.

Even better pictures of the ends as they are now, would be helpful.

Hell creek rib prep completed! Warning, lots of pics!

Looks correct to me. I'm excited to see the armature I've been meaning to try that but I have too many things on my plate so a jumbled display will have to do for now. - Today

thanks, I am trying to find someone to help me with the cut, I see some lineal fractures on the surface so I hope it doesn't crumble.

I'm look at something like this, as the most likely shape this would have had. Just based on the overall rib shape, and the remaining start of the flare near the proximal end.

Great work! I've been following as well on social media. It's always nice to complete a prep. Do you know what shape of head you're going for? I have several different rib head shapes I could send you if you want. I am also going to use the 5 gallon bucket sand box I don't have the space to build a classic sand box so that will be perfect.- 10 replies

Great job! The gauntlet of mosquitos that's between the parking lot and the beach is always an adventure to go through. No pain! No gain!

Yes, likely. I'm hoping someone may recognize the type it is.

Definitely wood, maybe palm, but a better look at the cross section (end grain) may be needed to be certain.

Crinoid calyx.

I am having trouble identifying this specimen. I have not found or seen another like this, so I'm hoping someone will be more familiar with it than I am. It looks clearly crinoidal like a calyx, and comes from the Burlington Formation of Missouri which contains a large fauna of crinoids. I considered Rhodocrinus, but I don't think that is correct. The calyx looks like it has 2 rows of "spines". I currently lack an air compressor and air abrader, so this specimen cannot be cleaned any further due to how fragile it is. Any ideas?

I was told this was a Mammal tooth and that it could most likely be a dire wolf but I myself am somewhat new to fossil identifications and can not confirm this. Found in the Peace River in Florida. Help? Thank you so very much. - Zeus and his mother Heather
