First pic seemed like mosasaur to me, (not that I know much about mosasaur teeth), but that indent really threw me off. Either way, beautiful tooth. 1 -Jay “The earth doesn't need new continents, but new men.” ― Jules Verne, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coco Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 I also think it’s a pathology in the first photo.

Brevicollis Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) Looks like a pathological Mosasaurus tooth to me. @pachy-pleuro-whatnot-odon, @Praefectus migth know.

Praefectus Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Looks to be a mosasaurine mosasaur tooth with an accessory carinae like what is described in Stelladens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pachy-pleuro-whatnot-odon Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 (edited) As Trevor said, looks like a pathological mosasaurine mosasaur tooth to me, with an incomplete auxiliary carina and a sulcus. However, I wouldn't compare these conditions to Stelladens mysteriosus, with this tooth being clearly adherent from any described morphology I'm familiar with - including Stelladens...
