  1. ThePhysicist

    Ceratopsid Tooth

    From the album: Hell Creek / Lance Formations

    A rooted Ceratopsid tooth - either Triceratops or Torosaurus (though it's more likely to be Triceratops since it was far more abundant in the HC ecosystem).
  2. ThePhysicist

    Lightning strike trike

    From the album: Dinosaurs

    Plant roots often intrude upon a fossil's resting place, leaving behind white streaks when removed.
  3. Hey everybody, on my most recent excursion in the Hell creek formation ear the powder river in montana. I found some pieces of weathered out bone all in a 5 foot radius of each other on a small rise. Due to changing weather and approaching night I didn't have the chance to uncover anything else so I grabbed the weathered out pieces and will come back to the site in August. I am a beginner and am honestly stumped as to what these could be. The 2 largest bone fragments measure 22x10.5x2.5cm and 12.8x7.3x2.9cm respectively. I am inbetween chunkasaurous or a possible ceratopsian frill. But I don't see the pronounced blood grooves frills are supposed to have. For the next largest bone fragment measuring 10x3.7x2.0cm I was thinking a vertebral process, rib, or the edge of a frill, the rounded edge on it has the same sized round as the one present on the largest bone. The rest I have no idea the smallest pieces have some interest patterning that look like some patterning I've seen or turtle shells from hell creek but these are really small. I know @Troodon has been a wonderful help before but I'd love anyone elses opinion if they can be identified or are just a lovely addition to my chunkasaur collection.

    Juvenile Triceratops tooth

    From the album: Hell Creek / Lance Formations

    Sold as Triceratops sp. by the BHI. Normally, Ceratopsid teeth should be considered indeterminate since the teeth of the large-bodied Ceratopsids present in the Hell Creek fauna are virtually indistinguishable. Trusting the ID of the BHI would be to label it as Triceratops sp., but to be conservative (and since I don't know their reasoning behind the ID), I chose to label it as Ceratopsidae cf. Triceratops sp.
  5. Hi everyone, I wanted to get some opinions on this piece I found in Montana's Hell Creek formation this past summer. My initial thoughts were that it was a ceratopsid skull fragment. It was a fossil I was planning on selling, but before I do I wanted to rule out the possibility that it was a piece of ankylosaur osteoderm as I have significantly less material from that clade of dinosaurs. The dimensions are about 8 cm by 7 cm.
  6. ThePhysicist

    Ceratopsid shed teeth

    From the album: Hell Creek / Lance Formations

    Ceratopsidae (shed/"spit" teeth) Hell Creek Fm., Powder River Co., MT, USA Labeled as "Ceratopsidae" because there are two valid genera currently known from Hell Creek: Triceratops and Torosaurus - whose teeth are indistinguishable. You commonly see teeth like these sold as "Triceratops" spitters, but this is not necessarily a correct identification.
  7. ThePhysicist

    Triceratops prorsus

    From the album: Hell Creek / Lance Formations

    Triceratops prorsus Hell Creek Fm., Harding Co., SD, USA More information

    Agujaceratops rarity

    On a scale of 1 to 10 how rare is an agujaceratops tooth?
  9. PaleoNoel

    Judith River Ceratopsian Spitter

    Hey everyone, I found this spit tooth in Montana's Judith River formation over the summer and believe it belongs to a ceratopsid as it looks similar to ones I've found in Hell Creek and Lance. This would be cool as they are significantly rarer in this formation than in HC & L , despite a wider variety of species. Let me know what you think. It's about 1.5 cm long and 1 cm wide.

    Damaged bone or horn core?

    Good afternoon! I am a beginner collector and last summer I went on my first dig in Glendive, MT. I don't know the age of the rock we were digging in, but we found some fragments to cast and this piece was found under all those as we dug them out, so it was kind of by itself. We did a very quick search around the area and didn't find anything else. I notice this piece is kind of conical, but I didn't know if that shape was due to damage or if it was a horn. It's in real rough shape, very crumbly, and there is still some plaster on it you can see in a couple pictures (as well as super glue from a bad repair I attempted). There is definitely some marrow on the inside but the outside is badly split. Some groves present Any info or guesses is appreciated. Someday I hope to be as knowledgeable as you all!
  11. I recently bought a Do It Yourself Psittacosaurus skeleton cast. And I thought it would be fun to share the process of mounting the skeleton. I already had a skeleton cast of a juvenile Psittacosaurus but now I also have an adult version! As it came painted, I could just have mounted it as is. But I wanted to give it a more interesting post rather than a a straight spine and tail. Since the spine and tail come in bundled segments of vertebrae. I thought I would cut them apart so that I could create curves better. And as I was modifying it anyway, I might as well improve it here and there as well. Some parts like the vertebral foramen on the vertebrae and some fenestra are filled in on the original cast. So I decided to dril some holes to make the details a bit more accurate. Size comparison with the adult and juvenile skeleton. The frame I made for the juvenile is pretty basic and primitive so I want to make a better and prettier mount for the big one. Drilling out the vertebral foramen in the middle and separating the vertebrae. Process of drilling holes and opening up the inside of the skull to more accurately reflect actual openings in a real skull. I'm not done smoothing out the new hole syet though. So right now it still looks quite ugly. More to come soon!
