barefootgirl Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Barefootgirl, the bigger of the two small teeth is an oral tooth from the sawfish Ptychotrygon triangularis. The smaller one looks like an oral tooth from a different sawfish. The Ptychodus if from Duck Creek of Texoma would be decurrens. If from POC not so sure. Thanks Tony.

growlator Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 (edited) Here are some of my smallest finds. First one- A Small ant from the Eocene Florissant formation, preserved in volcanic ash. I should re-photograph this specimen with my great macro lens sometime, this was at the very limits of my consumer digital camera. Scale in mm. Second one- A small beetle shell wing cover (Of the genus Cupedidae) from the Late Triassic of the Newark Supergroup, North Carolina.
