Hunter0811 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 i have found quite a few micro jaws from the hell creek in the past like lizard and fish jaws, however i recently went through some old finds and noticed a small jaw, and i have absolutely no idea what it might be. it doesnt look like fish or lizard to me. the length of the jaw is about 14mm.

Troodon Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Two possibilities come to mind an amiid fish jaw, Melvius is present in the HC or the reptile Champsosaurus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter0811 Posted March 11, 2019 Author Share Posted March 11, 2019 The jaw looks fish like but has a weird structure and isnt as high as most other fish jaws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anomotodon Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 I would go with cf. Belonostomus (Aspidorhynchidae indet.), here is my premax I’ll from Albian of Ukraine, I’m pretty sure they are also found in Hell Creek. 4 The Tooth Fairy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpc Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 definitely Belenostomus... the central line of big teeth surrounded by two rows of fine teeth. Good find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
