DeloiVarden Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Does anyone know what some of them are? Would love to know what the Jaw bone is from. The lighter collored fossil in the first picture may be a horse tooth. You need to post a picture of the ends facing the camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robertsails Posted March 9, 2011 Author Share Posted March 9, 2011 Yup that was the only one that I knew. I found that rolling around on Casperson Beach. I will take more pictures and post them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrehistoricFlorida Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 I am about to add more and better pics. Would really like to know what the jaw bone is from. I will post that one first. This is an alligator mandible. Next one looks like a leg bone or something to me. Sections of bones like this that are missing both ends are nearly impossible to positively identify. horse tooth? Correct. black one a shark spinal section? Shark vertebra. www.PrehistoricFlorida.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robertsails Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share Posted March 10, 2011 Cool. Glad to know what that jaw went to. Wonder how old it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 (edited) Nice fern. Looks like there could be more hidden behind the first. Looks like Alethopteris from St. Clair, PA. Llewellyn formation. EDIT - if you try to split this shale, do so carefully, as it doesn't generally split nicely in even layers. Talking from experience - good way to ruin a nice fossil, even if there is decent thickness to the shale.
