Hi everyone!

So, yeah. How does one tell the difference? It measures 2.28 inches straight line, .51 inches wide.IMG_9582.thumb.JPG.708b199f52466d2116526af55674e021.JPGIMG_9583.thumb.JPG.9cb706adaa1cbd36248f401b5161cb86.JPGIMG_9584.thumb.JPG.b346220d641a143746219f0e80a9bedc.JPGIMG_9585.thumb.JPG.0f5edcf16d184fb4f352bd4dc5aba72b.JPGIMG_9587.thumb.JPG.f277afe0c6bf1d41a8cf624630e09875.JPGIMG_9589.thumb.JPG.34a8a34b52e1769444f77acda9058c11.JPG

That's Carteroides isn't it?

Do you have anything from the modern genus, Caster to compare?

I am a fossil hunter in Florida.  I have found Carteroides, not Castor canadensis. You can search the internet for modern Beaver incisors... They look something like this... I do not think that they look like Capybara incisors.

This was also found in the peace river. Isn't it Caster?

Sorry for intruding on the ID thread,

but may I ask what kind of model skeleton these are? They look better than the usual toys.

I f you like, pm me or answer in one of my model threads http://www.thefossilforum.com/index.php?/topic/97806-neogene-ungulates/.

Cheers,

J

I could PM you but there may be other members who are interested.  If you do an internet search for "Castor canadensis skull"  , you should find a website Darwin and Wallace,  .. I'm am treading lightly because of rules against "For Sale" sites...

 

To clarify my responses, In 10 plus years of searching , I have found 3 Castoroides .sp tusk _ incisors.  I have found no Castor .sp tusk_incisors.  I have no special knowledge on Castor incisors.  Thankfully, Harry does. That's a strength of TFF

I was referring to the small scale skeletons on the bottom of one of your pictures, one looking like an upright bear and the other some camelid or other artiodactyl, below the "peace on earth" :rolleyes:

Thats the kind of thing I try building myself, so I was interested.

On the Darwin&Wallace site I found only original size replicas, or did I give up to early?

Best Regards,

J
