Today I went to a nearby creek in north Florida and came across these fossils that I need help identifying. 1. Definitely posterior. Maybe bull, lemon, or hammerhead? 2. I don't know if I've seen this before, at first I thought small hastalis, but then I noticed what appears to be a cusp on the left side. (it's just on the tape measure so you can see the cusp better.)3. Turtle, but I was wondering with the odd shape if it was possible to tell where from.Thanks!

Are these lemon shark teeth? Or black tip? Or something else entirely? How do you tell the difference between lemon and black tip shark teeth? These are from the temblor formation, slow curve ernst quarry.

Hii, I've received a bunch of fossils from my friend in USA. These fossils were all bought in a store (New York area). I understand this makes it harder to identify, but maybe one of you intelligent human beings are still able to figure it out haha This was sold as a shark vertebrae and it measures 30x30x10 (mm). Does anyone know which kind of shark it belonged to and which time period / era it's from? Thanks in advance!

Just acquired a small shark tooth, but not sure about the species. Need some help with identifying this one. It is serrated but not so obvious. I think it might be hammerhead, lemon shark, or carcharhinus sp?

Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum. My daughter and I were in Florida for her spring break. She's ten and interested in fossils, so I souped up a canoe with outriggers and bought a hookah system. Most of the time we spent was learning about how to dive down and overcome her fears safely, but we got some time on the bottom. No megs, but a few smaller teeth. I've attached some images. Not sure if we got the IDs correct, but here goes. best wishes, Lloyd Our guesses are bull shark, dugong, dugong, unknown, then a few smaller teeth in a group, then two lemon shark teeth, mackeral shark, ray plate, and sand tiger shark.

I’m zeroing in this weekend on a pile of small unorganized teeth from Aurora. These easiest to separate out first are these easy to spot, straight rooted, straight crowned, small laterals. I’ve always called these Lemon Sharks (Negaprion eurybathrodon) but as I read further, they look a lot like Carcharhinus brachyurus as well. any opinion before I move on from this nightmare and focus on something else?

Hey y'all! I need help with this one shark tooth I found in Galveston, TX a couple of years ago. I initially thought lemon, but I'm not sure anymore. Any insight would be much appreciated! The tooth measures almost exactly 1.5 cm from root to tip. To me, it closely resembles a tooth also from Galveston (3rd, 4th pictures). However, it's missing serrations. It's possible they're worn off as the root is diminished as well. I think it's possible it could be a hammerhead. The blade seems too flat and broad at the root to be lemon.

Hi all, Agree with me that those are from the lemon shark Negaprion? if yes, is it possible to put a species name on it, or do I have to keep them as Negaprion sp.? From Horse Creek, USA (Miocene). Best regards, Max
