Does this belong to Abelisauridae? Teeth covered in sand. From KEMKEM.
liuhaowang45 posted a topic in Fossil ID
This tooth is very sharp and resembles Abelisauridae, but it measures 5.9 cm in length, which I have never seen before. Could it be from a different dinosaur?

Hello friends, I have just received this beautiful fossil tooth from North China and I would like to know if it belongs to a pachyderm or some other species of mammal. As always, I am expectant and grateful for your comments and insights!

Hello! I found this fossil teeth in a beach in Gozo (Malta). I think it was underwater due to the marine flora grown on it. Anyone can help me with the identification? Regards, Mark

I took off yesterday morning and drove to a Grayson County creek, one of my previous hunted and favorite spots. It was my first fossil hunting trip since early in the year. I haven't posted here since October of last year, and had made only a couple of trips where I didn't find much since then. And, truth be told, when I'm not hunting, I'm not browsing the forum either, hence my long absence. The multiple meniscus tears in my left knee finally became too much to allow for hiking creeks, so I stopped hunting. I finally had knee surgery May 2nd, but have not been able to kneel on that knee again until very recently. The past few weeks, I have felt like that, with a bit of extra padding, I could use my knee pads again, but with daily temperatures from 105 to 110 degrees, I have just not been willing to fossil hunt. Finally, yesterday was cooler, so off I went. Here are some in situ photos. That first photo has two teeth.

Collages of dinosaurs made with pictures of fossil teeth
BirdsAreDinosaurs posted a topic in Paleo Re-creations
This is a fun project that I have been working on for the past few months. Fossilized dinosaur teeth from the Kem Kem beds in Morocco showcase a wide variety of colours and patterns, caused by the varying conditions under which they were fossilized. To me, these colours and patterns are rather beautiful. Therefore I decided to ask a colleague of mine, who is a professional photographer, to take pictures of my small collection of teeth, so I could use these pictures to create collages of the original owners of the teeth. Using this approach, I made images of theropods from five different families. The animals on the images inhabited what is now known as Morocco about 100 million years ago. Here they are. The white bar next to the teeth represents 1 cm. This one I based on the species Spinosaurus aegyptiacus. This one is based on Rugops primus. I was inspired by the patterns of the Gila monster. Based on Deltadromeus agilis, which might be a noasaurid. As no skull of this dinosaur has ever been found, I am not sure that these are actually teeth of Deltadromeus. The other side of the smaller tooth shows an interesting white pattern, caused by plant roots growing on the fossil. Based on Carcharodontosaurus saharicus. I am not certain that these teeth are dromaeosaurid, but they do have characteristics that indicate that they might be. I love the pattern on the smaller tooth, which made it pretty easy for me to create a feathered look. I went ahead and got cards printed with the collages on the front. On the back I have included the family names and the specific teeth I used for each collage, at full size! It was a fun and refreshing experience to try a completely different approach to making illustrations.

Just wanted to share my fossil collection with you guys. Nothing to crazy mostly common stuff, but it's all from a years worth of digging. Everything you see here taught me a lot about identifying fossils. After that year I kinda stopped digging due to personal life reasons and I started new hobbies. That was 10 years and unfortunately I never got back into it till a few weeks ago I started hunting agatized coral and caught the bug again to want to hunt. I'll be posting as I find new stuff. Thanks you!

Hi, whilst I’m a new member I have spent many interesting hours reading threads on the forum. Quick intro, I live on the Jurassic coast of Dorset UK and mainly collect what I find. However my interest is growing towards dinosaur fossils and in particular teeth. As many forum members are seasoned collectors I wanted to reach out for advice. Whilst there are many teeth available on dealers websites is it fair to assume that the higher quality and rarer examples rarely reach dealers? How do the more seasoned collectors advance their collections? Is there any issues buying directly from eg The US with UK customs? I’m sure there are many more questions but all advice would be very welcome. Thanks

Hello! I think I've just about tapped out most of my local hunting spots. Yet a week ago I found a couple fossils that look like teeth. Please let me know what you think. They are 1.5 cm wide by 1 cm long, Pennsylvanian (Carboniferous), Glenshaw Formation and from Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.

I took another first time fossil hunter out to look for shark teeth, today. It was quite hot. There were 3 of us looking today, and we had a good time. We made sure the new fossil hunter, left with shark teeth. My haul for the outing: The new fossil hunter's haul for the outing:

I have these two - teeth, I assume - that are from some long ago - dinosaur, I assume, or perhaps some sea creature. Do not know who gave them to me or the background behind them. But am hoping they look familiar to someone! Thanks, Phil

Any ideas on these two ?

Hi Guys, I recently got some photos from a friend of mine who bought these teeth from Niger. When he bought them, the seller told him that there is at least one tooth of Kryptops, Eocarcharia and Afrovenator in this lot, but he wanted to be sure. What do you think? In my opinion the first is from Afrovenator, the second and third from Eocarcharia, and about the last I'm not so sure. Thank you in advance.

My 8yo daughter found these in Myrtle Beach, SC, help IDing please!
JumpJ37 posted a topic in Fossil ID
My daughter and I found over 100 shark teeth and other fossils this week on vacation in Myrtle Beach, SC. Here’s a small number of interesting and representative fossils. I’ve tried to look at a few ID guides, but it’s tough to tell definitively what these are. Any help would be appreciated!
