    Herbivore tooth - fossil or not?

    I am trying to find out if this herbivore tooth is fossilized or not, and what animal it is from. It was found on a sandy beach in Gloucester, MA. Any ID help would be appreciated. If it is old or fossilized, wouldn't it be more worn down? I'm not that familiar with horses, if that's what it is. Tooth is wet in one photo. Thanks in advance!

    ID Help Peace River FL

    Back out Tuesday for a nice day on the Peace River. Found the river running a little faster and deeper than the previous week. It was also very cloudy and had a greenish look to it. I went to a spot I had tried last year on my last visit for the season, when the river was running so fast it was sweeping just about everything right off the shovel as I tried to bring it up. Today was better and I found plenty of nice shark teeth (no megs), an armadillo scute, set of camelid teeth, gator teeth, a very small phalange, and the partial tooth I am asking for help with here. When I first pulled it from the sifter I thought partial whale tooth. I shortly decided this was not the case and researching further came to the conclusion it may be a partial Equus canine. Went in this direction after comparing it to a camelid canine @Harry Pristis, @Shellseekerand @Meganeura helped me with recently. This one has a thicker and rounder look to it. I found a similar looking tooth on a commercial website ID'd as a horse canine and thought it looked like a match. Opinion on ID would be appreciated. Here is the the specimen I found: Measurements - 40mm x 12mm x 9mm or 1 1/2" x 1/2" x 3/8" Here is the picture I found that I thought may be a match:

    Vertebra--Bison or Equus?

    I found what I believe to be a lumbar vertebra, and I'm having trouble finding good comparison examples between equus and bison. I think those are my two most likely candidates. Do equus lumbar vertebrae have the foramen that I've circled in red below?

    Help with Tooth ID

    Found this small tooth last week while hunting the Peace River. Almost missed it in the sieve and initially thought it was just a chip of something. On getting it home and giving a closer look I became convinced it is a tooth. Maybe an incisor. After a lot of searching on line the closest I could come up with is horse incisor. Only I think it is way too small for that. The chewing surface appears more jagged and uneven then I would expect from a herbivore. The groove along the length of the tooth and its curvature are similar to what I have found on horse incisors. Measurements - Inches = 3/4"L x 3/8"W x 1/4"H CM =. 20mm L x 10mm W x 6mm H @Shellseeker, Jack - I would appreciate your input knowing how much time and effort you put into finding the small 3-toed horse fossils. Thanks, Jim W.

    Equus Navicular?

    Found this little piece a while back, and I'm pretty sure it's a navicular. It looks similar to the equus navicular examples I've seen on the site, but there do appear to be a few differences. The differences might just be due to wear, but I wanted to see if anyone had a different take. Blocks are square inches.

    Peace River ID Help

    As I wrapped up my hunting season on the Peace River, FL recently I decided to start going through my unidentified finds and try to figure out what they are. I am posting two of them here in the hopes that someone will recognize what they might be. Both are partials and were found at different sites on the river. First up is a rounded and grooved partial bone that I think could be the distal end of an Equus femur. There is an obvious groove on one side and this could easily be a ligament channel. Measurements seem to fit the Equus distal femur from what I have been able to find in my research. Inches = 3.25" long x 2.50" wide x 2" tall MM =. 80mm x 65mm x 50mm Next is what looks to be a partial limb bone. I have not been able to come up with a possible match and don't know if there is enough of the actual bone to make an ID. Measurements- Inches = 3.50" long x 1.50" wide MM = 90mm long x 40mm wide Any input would be greatly appreciated , Thanks!

    Horse Tooth?

    Location: Shoreline Holden Beach, NC
  8. I found this tooth on the beach in Tel-aviv, Israel. I looked up some photos and I think it may be an equus tooth. There haven’t been horses on that beach for a very long time so I’m wondering what time period it could be from. Thoughts?

    Identification of "horse tooth"

    I found this tooth unlabeled in an oddities shop in Massachusetts. My thoughts were that it was from a horse and probably from southeast USA. Any ideas on age and species would be great! Im also curious what the white thing is on the bottom left of the chewing surface, some sort of marine life? Thank you!

    Equus Tibia & Mammoth Tooth Fragment?

    Hi everyone! I'm now living just outside Saskatoon and I am working with the University of Saskatchewan's Museum of Natural Sciences. The Saskatoon area is largely undescribed in paleontological literature, so I have been visiting various sites around the city in the hope of finding some fossils. I found these specimens in sediment exposed by construction excavation. I have several other bone fragments from this site, all exhibiting mineral staining, but they are likely ribs and vertebrae which are difficult to identify to the species level. The first is clearly a mammal limb bone. I believe it to be the distal end of a tibia. It is heavily water-worn, but I believe I can still make out the impressions of the double trochlea. I know that a reliable method of identifying tibias to either Perissodactyla or Artiodactyla is to observe the impressions of the double trochlea (credit to this thread for helping me with this!): I think I can make out the impressions, though I'm not sure if they are at an angle or if they truly run fore and aft. I would greatly appreciate some more input on this and some fresh eyes! I've included a (somewhat crude) rendering to help illustrate what I think I see. If it does belong to the Perissodactyla group, I can confidently assign it to Equus indet., establishing the specimen as a fossil. The second object looks and feels like a fragment of mammoth ivory. It has the distinctive bark-like outer texture and it is almost identical in most regards to confirmed fragments of mammoth tooth I have. I don't know what the dark substance is on the underside. I have no idea how something that looks so biological could be produced by a construction site, so I strongly suspect it is at least something organic. I don't know how helpful photos are in identifying mammoth tooth fragments, but if an identification is possible I would really appreciate it! If I can identify either one or both of these specimens as Pleistocene fossils, I can designate the site as a fossiliferous location and continue my work in the area with more confidence. Thank you all!

    Help with Peace River ID

    Found this tooth last week on the Peace River, FL. At first glance I thought incisor - Equus. Upon getting it home and looking closer I didn't know if in fact an Equus incisor could be as small as this as it measures 22 mm in length and 9 mm across the crown. The crown surface is worn so that while I thought there is a hint of what I would expect from the crown of a horse incisor, I just can't be sure. With that, I am submitting it to the knowledgable folks here who may be able to provide an ID. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

    What ungual phalanx?

    Found this bone in the Peace River, FL last week. I have been attempting to narrow down an id since then. I believe it is an Ungual Phalanx but have not been able to determine from what. It measures 35 mm long x 35 mm wide and 33 mm tall at the highest point. As such, it is larger than what I can find for deer or llama and smaller than than what I have found for Equus or bison. That has led me to an old post from @Shellseeker that resulted in a giant tortoise id for an ungual phalanx and makes me think this could be another. It was found in a spot that produced several tortoise leg spurs and large shell pieces on the same day. I am hopeful someone can provide an ID. Thanks.

    Help with Tooth ID

    Looking for some help with the ID on a tooth I pulled up from the Peace River, FL yesterday. On first glance in the sifter I thought it was a nice small chunk of a horse tooth (Equus sp.). When I got home and took a closer look it appeared to be the complete tooth minus 4 root extensions. The occlusal surface of the tooth was one I have not seen before. I tried to match it to Equus but kept coming up empty. I tried bovine with no luck either. From a close look at all four sides I do not believe it is broken and missing any of the crown.It well may be Equus, but I thought I would ask for input from those with much more knowledge and experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The occlusal surface measures 22 mm x 12 mm.

    Stumped on these two

    I am having a tough time coming up with what these two teeth are. When I first pulled them out of the river I thought horse. Then looking closer I began to question that assumption because of the hollowness seen in both. Looking on line and through my Neophyte's Guide I then found a similar looking Sirenia molar. But then I also found a Neohipparium Eurystyle unerupted lower molar that looked like a possibility. Any help clarifying the ID on these would be appreciated.

    ID Help Please

    Did a lot of online searching trying to id this little specimen. What it seems to most resemble is the top if an Equus incisor. Could that in fact be what it is?
