Found this tiny tooth in a Gainesville creek. Looks like it has a cusp on one side. Could it possibly be a juvenile Great White tooth? I looked on elasmo but I don't see anything that quite fits the profile of it. It's about 12mm in length.

Found this fossil in a creek during my last trip my guess is that its a whale tooth or some kind of tooth. But I was wondering if anyone knows what it is? Along with possibly how old it could be? I found it on a creek near the peace river.

Hi! I’ve found a good amount of fossil shells and coral today. Some I’ve been able to search on this site an others for an ID. But there are a few I’m not sure of and also might not be shells or coral at all. I’ll list some pics below. Any help is appreciated!

Greetings, I am working on my next display and am trying to sort through the various pieces of turtle shell. I have attempted to divide and label them as much as I can, using references I will post. This is my first attempt at turtle shell and have relied entirely on examples and available resources, so any correction/confirmation/explanation would be most appreciated. On my paper (in case it's unreadable - tendonitis flaring up so handwriting quality going down), the upper half of the page is carapace, the lower half is plastron, the left half is softshell and the right half is hard shell. I included a composite image which has better focus on each quadrant (terrible lighting today), and a larger image on which I wrote my attempts at further identification. References: This whole thread: This image (location directly on image): This image was very helpful: And these hand-drawn diagrams I found to be most accessible:

Hello, Was out on the Peace River recently and found something I couldn't identify, not that I can really identify anything other than a shark's tooth with much ease...But, was wondering what this might be? I saw in another post someone had a piece of mammoth tusk that resembled what I found but there were some differences. Any help is appreciated. Also included a pic of the teeth we found. Thank you
