Toothplate Impression From The Lower Jaw Of A Triassic Lungfish?

[GeschWhat]

I received a micro CT scans of this coprolite from the University of Minnesota Tomography Lab. The software I have for viewing/manipulating the images isn't quite as nice as that of the university's, but here are some images nevertheless. I could not see any tooth plate inclusions, but there are numerous scales and what looks to be part of a fish jaw or vertebra (see next post). What do you all think it is?

I will post better images as they become available.

It looks like a pycnodont tooth plate rather than a lungfish, really cool fossil whatever it is! Heres an example of a pycnodont tooth plate from the net.

You could be right. I really have no idea what type of tooth plate it is. I was hoping there was another one in there so I could see some additional detail,

These are cool, but just wait until you see what I can get using the U of Mn's software. I'm suppose to meet with them next Tuesday. Life is good!
