Myrtle Beach Shark Teeth


Recommended Posts

Posted

So I have been in Myrtle Beach this past week and have collected roughly 200 shark teeth. Only problem is I know nothing about shark teeth so I was wondering if any of you could ID some of the types

This is the overview of some of the types.

Row 1. post-17312-0-88969400-1436033203_thumb.jpg these teeth are really small, enamel is light grey. No serrations I can see

Row 2. post-17312-0-69426300-1436033355_thumb.jpg these ones are wider but are more compressed. They don't have serrations.

Row 3. post-17312-0-81541500-1436033634_thumb.jpg This one is pointy. Small serrations are present.

Row 4. post-17312-0-91025300-1436033808_thumb.jpg pointy, curves a little. Serrations aren't apparent to the naked eye.

Row 5/6:post-17312-0-51529700-1436034134_thumb.jpg these are long and pointy, very distinguishable from the others. I have lots of these and some are curvy, kind of like this ~.

Row 7. post-17312-0-31100600-1436034325_thumb.jpg these teeth appear to have straight lines. Serrations start from the top corners to the tip.

Row 8. post-17312-0-30775000-1436034427_thumb.jpg these two might be the same as the ones above they just appear more curvy.

Row 9. post-17312-0-09819900-1436034526_thumb.jpg none of my other teeth look like this one. Tip seems faded, root is tan/brown and appears large.

Row 10. post-17312-0-99188100-1436034789_thumb.jpg crown is curvy and has two smaller teeth looking things next to it(sorry I don't know what they're called).

Row 11. post-17312-0-99009300-1436034923_thumb.jpg now this one is really interesting, it has a large root and a small crown, again it has those two small teeth things. No serrations to naked eye.

Sorry if this was really long, I wanted to give as much info as possible. Thanks in advance and can hopefully answer any questions you have.
