These two teeth were found in South Alabama where the Tallahatta and Lisbon formation merge (both are Eocene in age) I’m pretty sure they’re both from a crocodile but I’m wanting to determine which species of croc they belong to??? Any ideas or comments will be greatly appreciated! Both teeth are 1-5/8” long and 9/16” wide.

A few months ago a friend of mine offered me this crab concretion for $30. That was for postage too. I knew this could be a fairly large crab, (a rather large conc), even knowing that the claws were a bit damaged I decided to buy it and see what happens? A concretions is almost always a gamble. As it sometimes happens, what he and I both thought was 'dorsal' turned out to be ventral. Dang!! Took me hours to find that out but turned it over and started again. This is a first for me, but im gunna prep out some of the ventral and all of the dorsal, with a bit of pincer repair. Lots of the front of the concretion is missing with some pincer damage, which I absolutely hate, (the reason I got it for $30), so this is gunna be another b-grade crab, but it should be a purty nice b-grade crab? Time will tell. RB

Hiya I got a bunch of Eocene shark teeth from Khouribga, Morocco and I've tried a tentative ID using the highly scientific tool of Google, but I'd like your opinions. The scale is in centimeters. First photo: Odontaspis sp. (substriata?), anterior to the left, lateral to the right Second photo: Striatolamna sp. (macrota?) Thanks in advance

Trip to Whiskey Bridge over Brazos River (Near Bryan, TX)
emtreloa posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
First time posting. Let's do this... We went fossil hunting with our two boys: 11 and 13. We had a blast and collected a lot of interesting fossils from the Eocene (Stone City and Cook Mountain formations). So many fossils! Lots of little things to sift through. We didn't find any shark teeth, but another person did and showed the boys to inspire them to keep looking.

Okay Ladies and Gents, This one has sincerely stumped me. This guy measures around 7 inches in length. I have no clue where to begin. Thanks

This specimen is from the Green River formation in Wyoming. Found split in two, unfortunately. These images show a before and after prep job using a Vaniman mobile Problast sandblaster. The specimen is a Priscacara from the Eocene period. -

First time posting here, thought i'd share a plate of Metasequoia that I found at the Macabee site near Cache Creek BC a number of years ago. More to follow if there's interest.

I have a good number of my micro vertebrate fossils in gem jar displays. I probably have 100+ gem jar displays. However until just recently I didn’t have a single Riker display case. I just bought one so I could show a few of my macro Eocene marine fossils from Virginia to a couple of collectors that I now collect with. I didn’t want to just put them in a gallon baggie to show the next time I went collecting. So the below picture is my first Riker display case. I don’t label anything in my collection any more with id labels. I used to id label everything years ago but got tired of having to change the labels as genus and species names changed. The Riker display case is 8” by 12” for size reference. The very top has two rows of three different species of sea snake vertebrae. Then there are two sawfish rostral teeth, an Otodus tooth, and portions of two ray tail spines. Then a partial ray dental plate, four anterior sandtiger teeth, and two shark scroll coprolites. Then a single medial tooth from a ray dermal plate and a bony fish jaw. Then two turtle carapace pieces and two rooted croc teeth. Lastly two turtle lower jaws and two more turtle carapace pieces. EDIT: I've added a number of specimens to the above Riker display case. See the picture below: Marco Sr.

[ Inclusion Inside Baltic Amber ] Pseudoscorpion + Enhydros ( "running water" ). Rare but not extremely rare.
vermiculosis posted a topic in Micro-paleontology
Dear friends, i hope i am not boring with my amber passion Its real obsession for me This time i'd like to show wonderful, i can say - almost perfect Pseudoscorpion ( False Scorpion ). People thinks often that is extremely rare but its not. I had i think about 30 pieces in career. Often they are very small, even only 1mm. This one had 2mm in max with body and pedipalps. What is interesting - do you see that drop inside ambdomen ? It was Enhydros "running water" but there is huge discussion in amber inclusion market what exactly it is. One side ( with me ) think that is running drop of water inside air sap. Second side think that is moving air bubble. Please check my movie from yt - i showed other amber with very nice Enhydros. I am sorry for the music - if someone got soft ears, turn off sound. For me logical is drop of water. What do you think about it ? If we talk about picture colours - i was playing with lights. Best one in friends opinion ? Cheers from Poland. Artur
