I found this tooth and part of it that snapped off along some spoil piles. There is no root, and I believe it is the labial view of the tooth surface exposed. The stone comes from the Deer Creek Formation, Ervine Creek Member. I believe it is a Petalodont, possibly Harpacodus?

I've found a large number of similar looking, but fragmentary, multicuspid petalodont teeth in the LaSalle Limestone (Late Pennsylvanian) of Illinois. This is one of the more complete specimens I've found. I haven't been able to find a comparable specimen in literature, and was hoping somewhere here might have some thoughts.

I believe this to be apart of a Petalodont root as I found the tooth in the previous image right next to this one-
