PrehistoricFlorida Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Hi, I need help, if not only stone, what sp., how old fossil, and weight+long of animal location: river of duna, from gravel Thank You! I agree that this is a section of proboscidean enamel. However, I'm not familiar with the "river of duna", so I can't say from what species of proboscidean. www.PrehistoricFlorida.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boss Jr. Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 The reason it may not be a fossil is because gastropods never went extinct and are represented by a widly diverse range of species over eight clades. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastropoda Hope this helps .
