I’m pretty sure the white tooth is a fossilized mako and I think the dark is a juvenile Megalodon or great white. Pretty sure it’s a meg what do you guys think?

I bought this at a garage sale in Tucson the other day. They told me they think they bought it at a museum gift shop.

hello, I found these shark teeth July 2018. Any info about them would be greatly appreciated. Picture of the front (and back in separate upload) . The largest measurements to the left are inches.

Hey guys. Newb here. I picked up this mosasaur tooth at a local shop today, I’ve read through the forums about some fake settings with the jaws and whatnot but was wondering if just from the pics if anyone can tell me whether this setting with the root looks real, or did i just buy some teeth set in a fake mold.

Mosasaur fabrication?
bcfossilcollector posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Looks like a complete fabrication, barring the crowns? @Tidgy's Dad @-Andy- @Troodon

Hi guys, last week I was on holiday in Austria and had the chance to hunt at the area of Adnet. There you can find fossils in the red "Adneter Schichten" which are lower jurassic deposits. I was there twice for about 4 hours at all and I found some cool stuff! At my first visit I found plenty of ammonites, one nautilus and some bivalves. It was a very rainy day. Here is a picture of the site: And this is the only ammonite I could prepped until now: Its a 5 cm long Phylloceras. A kinda common species there. The prep work is really difficult, because there is no really separation layer between stone and fossil. I didnt prepped the nautilus until now so I can you show a picture of the unprepped example: On my second visit the weather was very good (maybe even too hot ). Because of that and because of the enormous luck I had I found some shark teeth I didnt really expect to find one although I had already saw some teeth from there on the internet. But I didnt found one I found many Here are the 4 nicest ones until now: The first one is very fragile and 1 cm long: The second shark tooth is about 2 cm long and I like the combination with a crinoid stem: Then this one is about 1.2 cm long and seems to be only a fragment. But I still like it And last but not least the find of the day: A 2.6 cm long shark tooth!! I will try to take better pictures of last and biggest shark tooth after cutting the stone a bit smaller. At the moment the tooth is on a huge stone! The prep work on the shark teeth was also very hard because the teeth are very fragile and the stone is very hard. I prepped it with different needles and with my air scribe I am very pleased with those finds I assume that all shark teeth are Sphenodus shark teeth. Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoyed

Unknown Bone Fragment, Peace River Formation, Bone Valley Member
alej9582 posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi Guys, I was looking at this bone fragment and didn't thought much of it until I notice it's symmetry. Not only that but as per the picture below it has two protrusions (exact same shape and size on each side. Looks like teeth (or some kind of horn?) was present at some point. Let me know your thoughts. Alex

Could this be a plesiosaur(elasmosaurus) jaw? I tried comparing but it's hard to see the picture of jaws in ideal positions and angles and such. Also, with so many extreme teeth it can be hard to see perfectly in a lot of pictures. (Location-wise and all, it could be, this is just about the physical jaw itself)

From the album: Sharks and fish
The shark relative is genus of eugenodontia holocephalid from the Carboniferous-Pennsylvanian age Anna shale formation, Carbondale group, found in different Illinois coal mines. I dont know(yet)which mine these were found in. This unidentified species is of the "vorax-serratus- crenulatus-heinrichi" or "E. heinrichi group", with the teeth being more of a standard triangular shape, as opposed to being thinner and pointed at a forward angle as in the "E. minor" group http://www.thefossilforum.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=501751 -
Hi Folks, Recently I read about "digested teeth". This is in regards to teeth from prey animals that have been consumed by a predator and then excreted later. One example would be whale teeth eaten by a megalodon. Does anyone have any photos of digested teeth, or any knowledge to share on how to identify a suspected specimen of this type? Thanks in advance! MikeG

Hi all! I got a box with some fossils from my father who got it form my grandpa. It seems they were collected in Sahara desert, in the south of Marocco region. I was able to identify some of them (enrolled trilobites, crinoids, etc...) but can't identify the one in the attached pictures. Of course, I'm not an expert on fossils. Just that I love it and want to know more about it. Could you please help me identify it? Many thanks! Greetings from Madrid!

Mosasaur tooth with the replacement tooth still in place. I always wondered what the weird round/oval holes were on the side of mosasaur roots. Finally it all falls into place!- 3 comments

Here we go, I finally got two nice Sinosauridae indet. teeth (long more or less 8-9 cm). I love the fact that one is pointy and not broken, while the bigger one has the typical ridges along the tooth. What do you think?

2 unidentified mosasaur species' anterior end of premaxillary bones. One with teeth broken off just beyond the skull, and the other has 2 remaining teeth, with the rest broken off at the level of the skull. the larger fossil was found in the phosphate mines of Khouribga, Morocco. ive since lost the information for the smaller fossil, sadly. -

Hi! Can someone please help me to identify these items? I found them at a beach in Portugal, close to the city of Setubal. I often find bones there too but I don’t dare to bring them home...

Hey Everyone! I very recently started collecting dinosaur and shark teeth and thought I’d share with you the beginnings of a hopefully great collection like @Jaimin013‘s, who suggested I show these. Hope you enjoy! Some of the teeth include: Nanotyrannus/ Trex tooth tip Mosasur tooth Hell Creek Raptor Edmontasaurus Spinosaurus Possible Megalodon Other shark teeth, mako, tiger, snaggletooth, etc.

Shark Teeth Caloosahatchee Formation Florida Pliocene/Pleistocene
alej9582 posted a topic in Fossil ID
Guys, In 4 days of sifting in this locality (Caloosahatchee River/Fisheating Branch) I have only found 2 shark teeth, in reality I didn't expect to find any at all as it seems to have been amphibian/mammal/mollusk land which points to a lacustrine environment. So at some point the area must have been a shallow see as well but there is no way to know age difference. Anyhow here are the two specimens I found. Both small in size (nursery area?). There is a lot of info on shark teeth around but I am having difficult with this two guys. Any thoughts? Thanks, Alex

Please help me identify this fossil found yesterday on a hike Door County. It was found among very common fossils like corals.
