Bobby Rico Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 (edited) Cardita Bed, Bracklesham, West Sussex Exposures of the richly fossiliferous Palaeogene sediments, which comprise the Bracklesham Group (Eocene). 46 million years old. Easy hunting here on the beach and sharks’ teeth may be found by the hundred. I have vertebra, shark and ray teeth and more needing some IDs . I start with the shark teeth, something I don’t have a clue so any help will be much appreciated. I just pic out a few. Cheers Bobby Edited August 7 by Bobby Rico 2 Link to post Share on other sites

debivort Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 11 is a pair of vertebrae. Seeing them in profile (from the side, as opposed to end-on) can help with ID. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
