    A rock or an ungual

    Just trying to finish up finds from yesterday... Here are some knowns, A small Meg I love Sand Tigers with cusps like these!!!! A 7 mm Ray denticle A lower left jaw, p2 tooth from Nannippus aztecus, And now the unknown, As the day moved on, I had already found many nice fossils and sat down on the bank for a drink of water and some grapes. Next to me was a pile of gravel discards... I just can not help searching the discards for a few shark teeth the previous hunter might have missed... I saw an interesting 3-sided bone... Posterior view.. Bottom view... Note the "texture" of this bone.... and another view of the front... Measurements are Length 62 mm, width 38 mm, Height 31 mm. I think it is a hoof core and I hope for confirmation. Going out again in the morning. Leaving Tuesday for a week in Maryland... Thanks all comments/suggestions...
  2. I am looking for a nice Ungual claw. Hadrosaur. So this one looked nice in the first place. Says to be a PES claw from an Edmontosaurus. 2 11/16 x 2 3/4 in size. Hell Creek Fm., Garfield county Montana USA Is everything natural with this one or should i be searching for a better one?

    Is this a worn dinosaur ungual?

    This is probably a long shot but I figure I’d post it anyway because I’m really not sure what bone this chunk could be from… This is a large chunk of bone (over 15 cm in diameter) from the Hell Creek Formation with a unique shape. A personal find. It’s rounded on one end but tapers at the other, however at the tapering end it’s fairly obviously broken whereas the rounded end appears to simply be weathered. One side is convex like a dome whereas the other side is concave like a bowl. The entire piece is heavily weathered, although there is some intact cortical bone in the concave side. Convex side: Concave side: Thickness: I’ve only ever seen pictures of herbivore unguals, so I’m not sure how well this piece actually matches their shape. If it is an ungual my guess would be Edmontosaurus. Can anyone confirm or deny? And, if not an ungual, any guesses as to what bone or taxon this could be from, or should I leave it in the “chunk-o-saurus” bin? Much thanks.

    Edmontosaurus toe ungual?

    Just purchased this Edmontosaurus ungual and would like to know if it's indeed a toe ungual as advertised or a hand ungual? Considering the small size of 1.75" (length) x 1.5" (wide) is it correct I might assume it's from a juvenile Edmontosaurus? Location: Hell Creek Fm., Powder River Co. Montana

    UK Ankylosaur ungual?

    Hello, any help with this? Advertised as a possible ankylosaur ungual. From Hastings Subbgroup, Wealden Clay, Sussex. Description says the grooves in the bone surface are consistent with thyreophoran unguals. Yet, when I compare the US ankylosaur unguals--I don't see a resemblance at all. Could be a quite worn one? 1.8 inches. Cheers

    Ungual dinosaur?

    I have a material from the late Mesozoic from northeastern Mexico, it could be ungual from a dinosaur, what do you think?

    Peace River, March 5th

    A couple of curious finds from yesterday: First: A small osteoderm (33 x 25 mm) from a Glyptodon. The edges look like they have JUST been broken but looks are deceiving. The bottom edge is almost like a knife blade. I am curious on whether others have found/seem similar shape/size/edge and determined the placement of the osterderm on the edge of the shell. Second: What appears to be an Ungual, or toebone. There seems to be muscle/pressure marks similar to other unguals in the the 1st two photos and curious indentations (red lines) on the 3rd photo. All suggestions appreciated. Jack

    Edmontosaurus Ungual?

    I had found this online and I have been thinking about buying it. It doesn't look really like an ungual though, and the price seems too good to be true. It says that it is a foot claw from a duckbill dinosaur from the Hell Creek formation of Battle Co. South Dakota. Here are the pictures that the seller had provided. Thanks for any help.

    Camptosaurus Ungual Identification

    This was found at Bone Cabin Quarry. I need help identifying it please. I was told it’s Camptosaurus. The tip has some restoration.

    1 ungual, 2 proximals

    This was an interesting day. I do not find many hoof cores, especially with 2 proximal phalanx, one of which seems to "fit" pretty well. The pieces I connected came up in back to back sieves. I wonder a number of things. Is the combined Ungual/Proximal set od toebones, small, average or large when compared to other Equus fossils. Later in the day, another toe bone dropped into my sieve (just before the thunderstorm started). The width of this last phalanx is 19.75 mm. All comments and identifications appreciated. Jack

    Little Hoof Core?

    I checked the river yesterday for a short time and came across a lot of chunkosaurus, but I'm pretty sure this piece could be a small hoof core. If so, I'm not sure which species it may be. I felt like it was too rounded for deer but too small for equus. There is mostly Pleistocene in this gravel bed, but Miocene/Pliocene is possible due to older formation outcroppings up river. To me, this looks similar to a small hoof core that @garyc found and posted in an older thread that was ID'd as a possible miocene horse. But I'm always learning. Thanks for everyone's patience with all my posts. I've learned so much the past year from the forum. --Brandy

    Lance Fm. Mystery (ungual?) Bone

    I’ve had this piece of a mystery bone, I think it may be an ungual, from the Lance Formation for a while now but haven’t been able to identify it. Finally decided to post it here and see if I can get an opinion. Any help is appreciated!

    What is this?

    Hello, we found this bone fragment last month. It comes from Coahuila, Mexico, from the Cerro del Pueblo Formation, which is late Campanian in age (~72 million years old). All sort of dinosaur fossils are found at the formation, including ceratopsians, hadrosaurs, and tyrannosaurs. To me it looks like an ungual (toe bone). But the end of the piece is more blunt and rounded than most other ornithischian unguals I’ve seen online. Can any of y’all ID this piece, or is it just a regular unidentifiable chunk of bone?

    Paramylodon claw, which one?

    Hello dear forum members, Here I have a damaged sloth ungual supposedly from Paramylodon (see description in the last pic) Is it possible (for some of you) to determine which finger or toe it belonged to? That would be great. Thanks J

    Thescelosaurus assortment

    Hello, a set of Thescelosaur bones --radius and phalanges and ungual that I am interested in. From Montana USA. Not all from same specimen (except the phalanges). Anyone think it all looks ok, or see any red flags?

    Aguja Fm theropod ungual

    Hi again TFF! I pulled this little guy out of some Aguja Fm matrix and my first thought was possible theropod ungual. It is a massive 4mm in length. Thoughts?

    Peace River ungual

    Spending some time in the house picking through some micro-matrix I collected last time I was out on the Peace River. The fine gravel is more worn and polished than from other sites (like Cookiecutter Creek) but that is to be expected since the Peace is a much larger waterway with a greater flow (especially in the summer when the gravel is being deposited). Most of the small shark teeth tend to be worn as well but not as much as you'd find from specimens picked up from the surf zone of places like Caspersen Beach in Venice, FL which produce a lot of teeth that look like they've been through a rock tumbler. Few novelties seem to come from the Peace River micro-matrix (compared to other micro-matrix sites in Florida) but an interesting little ungual turned up yesterday. My suspicion is that this is likely a turtle claw core but I see so few of these that I can't distinguish avian from terrapin. Anybody have a thought on this little find? It measures 7.5 mm from end to end. Cheers. -Ken

    Croc or Turtle Ungual?

    Curious if anyone actually knows the difference between croc or turtle/tortoise unguals? Are there any diagnostic features? Have this ungual that we've always been in-between as to what it is:
  20. Who thinks this Wealden claw (my fossil) is Oviraptorid? What are the diagnostic features, anyone know....Henry?? Looks like it could be either to me - Dromaeosaurid/Oviraptorid. It is interesting that we also have maniraptoran confirmed at this locality, so this is another one to consider when identifying small elements like this. I am finding very small theropod dinosaur bones and claws that could belong to these animals. Currently Oviraptorids are only known from the late Cretaceous! And only in Asia. Yet some forum members have identified this as Oviraptorid...a big deal if they are correct....but are they?! The Wealden claw Dromaeosaurid claw Oviraptorid claw
