Fossil Foilist Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Well, went to the Belgrade Quarry today (my first time) with the NC fossil club. Yellow jackets everywhere and my hamstrings are sore from all the climbing up and down hills, it was fun here is some pics, First off is just some teeth, i didn't spend any time identifying them, so i cant tell you much. I think this is a Ric, right? Croc and Mosasaur or Croc? Gastropods Spiky Gastropod (Calyptraea trochita aperta) Turtle Shell Petrified Wood Mom ans Dad's finds (mother found the big teeth & dad didnt do so well ) I have more fossils, just got tired of taking pics ahha. Over all i would call it a good trip. Fossil Foilist -----)---------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixgill pete Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Nice croc teeth Skylar. I suspect your Ric is actually Carcharocles angustidens, the cusps look like they are attached to the tooth not separate. Nice piece of pet wood also. I have been finding quite a bit of that there lately.
