Purchased these two little friends in Alnif and unfortunately I can't find the information about them (species, locale). I think I remember the black one from the Ordovician or Devonian, and possibly the other from the Fezouata Formation. Perhaps someone here will know more. I know the black one was prepped personally by the seller in Alnif and I think he did the other as well. I'm going to keep looking as I was sure I recorded the info somewhere.

The jaw is from the phosphates of oued zem and measures 40cm more or less. It's a juvenile thalassotitan atrox or it's another species? Thanks! @Praefectus @pachy-pleuro-whatnot-odon

This trilobite was gifted to me by a family member who was in Morocco. I have doubts about its authenticity

Hi all, A friend in North Carolina has this (among many other) box of bones from Morocco that need some sort of ID or general push in the right direction. I haven't been staring at bones long enough to make sense of these, but the tray they're sitting in is 15 inches long. My own personal uneducated guess is that I see some metacarpals and other small hand bones, a metatarsal or two, etc. , but I welcome outside opinion. I have my eye on the one top right, first in the group of 3 so I'm especially curious about that one. Mahalo!

Hi. Friend of my got this trilobite, but I know these kind are often faked. I have never looked for this type of triobites so I was hoping someone would have more experience with these. Any opinions? Thank you.

I have (finally) got around to going through my Moroccan phosphate shark teeth. I've attempted to identify them but I am still not particularly confident at identifying fossils so I thought I'd run it by the experts first. All the teeth are (supposed to be) from the Eocene, save 4 which is (supposed to be) from the Cretaceous. I attempted to label the images with my proposed identifications but there wasn't enough space for all of them so I'll list them all here: 1. Ginglymostomatid (Nebrius?) 2-3. Hemipristis? 4. Unsure 5. Pristid/Sawfish (Pristis?) 6. Otodontid (Cretalamna?) 7-10. Odontaspidid The lighting is also quite poor on these images as the enamel on the teeth is very reflective and they show up as amorphous white blobs if it's too bright as my phone camera is by no means the best. Thanks in advance for any proposed ID's Othniel

I recently spotted a Palaeophis vertebra for sale, labelled as having come from a Palaeophis typhaeus. The vertebra was found in the Ouled Abdoun basin in Morocco and is Ypresian in age. I have only every seen Palaeophis maghrebianus vertebrae for sale, so I was wondering if this was a mistaken ID. Thanks in advance for confirmation Othniel

Hi all, Looking at purchasing this tooth. To me it looks like a transitional morphology between O. obliqus and P. Orientalis, but would like a second opinion. Thanks in advance.

The tooth shown below is labelled as coming from Sarcosuchus imperator, but I am a little dubious as to if this identification is correct. Unfortunately this is the only image of the specimen the seller has provided. Thanks in advance for any guidance Othniel

Recently purchased this at a local show. It looks good to me I just want to double check.

I recently saw this sawfish rostral barb up for sale as that of an Onchosaurus, but it looks very similar to those sold as Onchopristis: so which is it? Thanks in advance for any guidance Othniel
-
I recently saw this tooth for sale identified as a Deltadromeus, but it looks suspiciously similar to teeth sold as "indeterminate Abelisaurid", mine included, so I thought it would be worth checking. The seller has stated the tooth is "17mm x 10mm at the widest points". No other measurements were given. Thanks in advance for any guidance Othniel

Does Anyone Know What This Trilobite Is?
Lucid_Bot posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello, I found this beauty on a popular auction site and the seller seems to think it's a horseshoe crab. There is no geological information with it and the seller isn't even sure if it's real. I was hoping that someone might be able to identify it. Thanks.
