jcbshark Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 It's a little different than others I've seen but I think it may be a Holmesina Every once in a great while it's not just a big rock down there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichW9090 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Dasypus bellus, pretty water worn. You can even tell the orientation of the osteoderm. Note the two pits - they would have been on the posterior edge of the osteoderm. The plural of "anecdote" is not "evidence". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plantguy Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I dont think I've ever found one of the Dasypus at Venice--have run into them at other locations, neat! I always have my eye out for any of the fossil Armadillo stuff...even ran across a present day one that had met an early demise along a Florida Road near where I work. Being the ever curious sort I had to take pictures of the remains and how their plates fit together. Congrats on your find! Regards, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
