ID of shark teeth


CVH

Recommended Posts

I recently found a few shark teeth on the beaches of Ft. Pickens (Gulf Islands National Seashore) on the Gulf of Mexico.  The tooth in the top left corner is from a Great White.  The second from the right on the top row is from a Bull Shark (I think), and I believe the tooth on the bottom right corner is from a Lemon Shark.  Can anyone help me identify the rest?

 

Many thanks in advance!

Most of them are Carcharhinus.  You are correct about the Great White.

Thank you. It was a translucent grey when I pulled it out of a few inches of water and dried to that beautiful cream color after a couple of days.

They are all some beautiful teeth, especially the cream colored ones. Nice finds!
