We recently got some great STH Hexanchus teeth from @JBMugu and he was kind enough to send us some great micro matrix. I always enjoy searching for micro shark teeth and the STH material usually provides quite a few surprises. This batch was no exception. I have only searched about about half of the matrix but so far it has given us some really cool shark fossils. I found a few Hexanchus teeth which included a tiny lower (pic 1) and a few commisural teeth. In our previous searches, we found a total of 1 partial Hammerhead tooth. This matrix was, comparatively speaking, loaded with Hammerhead teeth. We found 6 small ones, mostly complete specimens and a large one. (Pic 2) We also found an Alopias tooth, a bunch of excellent complete Heterodontus teeth including a high number of anterior teeth, a lot of Triakis teeth, and much more. I think we came across another Squatina vertebra as well. One of the more interesting finds was a what appears to be the gill raker of a Basking Shark. (Pic 3) I am posting a few few pictures and will take more later on.
