Hi everyone! So About a month ago I found this partial fish skull at Charmouth, U.K. which has been identified for me as Caturus sp. I was hoping that I could maybe get some help on what parts of the skull I have here? I can identify the branchiostegal rays but that is about as much as I can do - as I’m very much an amateur who wants to learn more. Please forgive me if my guesses are wrong - any help at all would be greatly appreciated! I’m pretty sure these (A) are the branchiostegal rays? The cross section visible below of the next bone up from the rays (B) makes me guess it’s possibly the dentary? Which I guess would make (C) Maxilla? The top from the first photo.

From a sparsely fossiliferous shale above the Great Limestone (U. Mississippian, Pendleian) in Co. Durham, England. Found a couple of weeks ago by a streamside while walking the dog on the moors. It's the spiniest specimen of Eomarginifera longispina that I've seen - a common species but usually found with not much more than the bases of the rather sparse spines preserved. When rough prepping it with a pin vice, the long spine appeared first and I only later realised it had the hinge spines at the top. They're tubular and rather crushed. Like many productids, the spines are only on the ventral valve so probably more to do with support/anchorage in the mud than with protection. Scale in mm From the Treatise, the same species with typical spine bases.
