A colleague found this on the Kaw River and I can't seem to figure out what it is. Thank you all for your help!

Hey all! (Part 2) Requesting your help identifying a some fun larger bone fragments found by @jcor246 and me down on the ol’ Peace River, FL. (For brevity, separate ID posts featuring the non-toothy specimens collected on this outing will follow shortly.🆔🆘) Thanks, Jena and Josh

The dense bone, with a heavier than usual specific gravity to what you would expect from a bone. It was found at 0.5m below ground level within weathered Langport Member, Blue Lias Formation and Charmouth Mudstone Formation.

A break from the usual dinosaurs, I am quite interested in this as it is an oddity. It is apparently a cro-magnon femur. From the site of a gravel pit along the former San River in Poland. I am waiting to hear the measurements from seller, but my questions are thus A - Is it actually real B - Is it actually legal Like, selling/buying a bone from a cro-magnon/early human seems like something that shouldn't be legal. Seller is in Europe, would I have any issues exporting it to the UK?

Hello everyone! Here I am with another mystery bone from the boulonnais (Wimereux) region - North of France. The layers here are kimmeridgian and titonian (late Jurassic). I have a few pieces that I’ve collected over the course of 3 days all at the same spot. I managed to match the first three pieces, with two pieces that I already glued together since I was 100% sure of how they fit together. The first two pieces together: Then, I have this third piece that also match but I didn’t find the perfect angle to glue them yet: And together, they would look like this: Total size would be 15 cm broad and 20+cm long (that’s 6 inch broad and 8 inch long). Now I was thinking about part of (distal end) a plesiosaur propodial. But I’ve found a couple plesiosaur and pliosaur propodial from there and they are way flatter at the end. Also, they are mostly the same shape on both sides. Whereas here the « upper part » (the two pieces already glued together) are chunky on one side and flatter on the other side. Has anyone got an idea? Thank you very much!

I have a couple of these, this is the best specimen. I think they are from a mosasaur but only because they were found on the NSR. There are two indentions/holes that don't show up that well in the picture. The first picture shows the indention the best, there is a corresponding one on the other side. I apologize the lighting didn't make that more clear. If it helps in identification, I can retake pics.

Hello! I had a nice afternoon in northwest Dallas County, Texas, finding some beautiful pyrite and even a couple of fossilized fish skeletons (my extraction abilities were lacking). This bone came out of the clay at water level in the creek I was exploring. Right where I was finding fish skeletons, but this bone seems to belong to a far larger creature than the small and fragile fish skeletons I was finding embedded in the shale. Thanks in advance for your assistance!

I found this at Flag Ponds and it has me a bit confused. I’ve never found a rock like this at any of the Calvert areas. I’ve stumbled across where clay had been binding gravel/pebbles together and it was soft and squishy. This is rock solid and also has some bone fragments in it. Has anyone else ever stumbled across anything like it from Calvert?

Very hard bone--not sure it qualifies as a fossil. Been the ocean a LONG time is my guess. Found on beach in Delaware.

Thanks for any help! Love this forum!

Found about a week ago at Big Brook.

My daughter found this on a beach in Norfolk UK today and wanted to know if it was a fossil?

I found this small and delicate, nearly intact marine reptile bone in Big Brook yesterday, and I'm wondering if anyone can identify it. The bone is just under an inch in length.

Does this look like cancellous material?

I found this at Charmouth beach, UK. It does look like some kind of foot to me. Any idea? Gerald, The Netherlands

Hoping there's enough of this bone to ID. I'm 95% sure it's old, either Pleistocene or Oligocene (Chandler Bridge), based on the stratigraphy. The preservation looks similar to articulated Chandler Bridge material (white outside, reddish interior), which would imply marine. Not certain about that though.

Hi ive been prepping this bone which I thought was a vertebrae. Then I thought partial neutral. Now I’m not sure what it is. It seems to be hollow through the centre with quite a wide cavity.
-
is this bone ? It looks more like 2 arthropods I'm still cleaning it up
-
Found this today with in my fossil shells dirt. It looks like a shell, rock, bone all in one.

Well this was recently gifted to me from a friend whom was told by her late husband it may have been a dinosaur bone. Location of where he obtained this is unknown. It's very smooth not one hundred percent sure if it is even bone. I am wondering if anyone recognizes it. I have read and asked many others who collect historical artifacts and they can't make sense of it

Hello, i saw this Spinosaurus bone for sale today and wondered which bone it is, if its still identifyable. It kinda reminds me of a big vertebra fragment tho. It was found in the Kemkem beds, morocco. @Phos_01, because i know you as one of the Spino experts, migth you know the correct bone position and name ?

Fossil identification help please! Peace River Formation Venice, FL area
Newbie77 posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hello fellow paleontology buffs! I have recently returned from a trip to the Venice area where I did some surface/ beach sifting for fossils. I need to get out and dive there next time. I would love to have some help identifying fossils that are tripping me up. I recognize that there are a LOT of them. Sorry!!! I organized them on to a PDF because there were a lot to look at, but please let me know if it does not open up and I will upload them as images instead. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
