Hi everyone,
So I was going through some matrix I brought back yesterday and I was processing it even though there were still big lumps inside. Then I came across a tiny shark tooth and I thought, ‘oh, that’s nice’. Then I noticed another black bit at the top of the matrix and started digging it out while thinking ‘theropod, theropod, theropod’ . Then, with one wack of my hammer, the matrix fell off and this beauty was there. What I initially thought to be a tiny sharks tooth turned out to be part of a huge one, it’s really nice preserved and has good striations. I think I found the edge of the tooth while sieving earlier and dismissed it as nothing and now I can’t find it ! I looked through a paper and the most similar one I could find was planohybodus but I would love to be corrected. Whatever it is, it’s a nice addition to the collection . It measure 20mm and is one of the largest and nicest I’ve ever found!
