Troodon Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Cool find! Do you think the Deinonychus was feeding on the Tenontosaurus or they were washed together?Sorry for the late response. Anything is possible and Deinonychus would feed on Tenontosaurus carcasses. My guess is feeding since it not uncommon to find theropod teeth with skeletal remains. Example, My friend found these two Rex teeth last summer next to a triceratops leg bone. Sorry the images are not better but the bigger tooth is over 5 inches. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 (edited) This is a piece that only revealed itself to be a multiple species piece during the preparation. At first, I thought I found an association of two Austerops trilobites. But during the prep, I encountered a small but very nice Cyphaspis, too! All three trilobites have a very different orientation in the rock, so I needed to think carefully how to present them. It's indicative of rapid and violent burial. Poor things. However, I like the position of the Austerops, they seem to be chasing each other. The final picture shows the piece during the preparation. Found at Jebel Ofaten, Morokko.

Manticocerasman Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 This is a shark tooth associated with a Mantelliceras ammonite shell. (cenomanian) The tooth was actually in the shell, I had to remove a piece of the ammonite to reveal it completely, only the point was showing and stung in my hand while picking up the ammonite. Also I don’t have the name of the tooth, any help is welcome. (the fossil is from Cap Blanc Nez in France) 1 growing old is mandatory but growing up is optional.

Triceratops Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Sorry for the late response. Anything is possible and Deinonychus would feed on Tenontosaurus carcasses.

Visited the quarry again earlier this spring with G. Phillips and others and the formation was determined to be the Marianna rather than Glendon.

Ludwigia Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 There hasn't been anything posted here for a while, so I'll show this one, as Jess just suggested. An association of a Sphenodus sp. shark tooth together with an unidentified Terebratilid brachiopod and a Hibolites semisulcata belemnite from the Kimmeridgian divisum zone in the upper Danube valley, Germany. 4 Greetings from the Lake of Constance.

JohnBrewer Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Well I have to post this again - sorry for those who've seen it a dozen times. Arietites Bucklandi with gryphaea infestation im considering buying this, seems a bargain from a reputable Chinese seller.
