Late Miocene fish fossil id from Jalama Beach?

Recommended Posts

I recently made a trip to visit Jamala beach county park- which is a magical beach!! Between the miles of beach, exquisite rocks and rock formation, and cliffs of fossil beds… I could have stayed for weeks. Unfortunately I was chased off by fussy weather- but on the list of definite returns. (From Maryland….) I just ran out of time to really do some meaningful fossil exploration, however I did find these. Help with identification will be very helpful for future visits. Thank you!

Not really seeing anything readily identifiable beyond some bits of indeterminate fish in the third photo.

2nd photo may be fish, may be mineral/coprolite.
Not seeing anything in the first photo, and nothing in the last photo.
