NicolaiT13 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Hello, Last post. I found these all within a few feet in the Hellcreek formation. I'm not sure if they're at all related or not. The bone seems to be shaped like a wing. Another small piece of what appears to be scales. Two small vertebrate and a what appears to be a tooth. Thanks Again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossildude19 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Looks like some fish verts, your "tooth" is actually a fish scale, and not sure about the bone. The multiple fish scales are interesting. It's shaped like a fish operculum, but usually you don't see this kind of scaling on an operculum. 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 IPFOTM -- MAY - 2024 _________________________________________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Troodon Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I believe your bone on the right is a partial ilium of a Champsosaurus. Here is what a complete one looks like. Possible type of fish vertebrae from Tom Carr's HC book..Actinopterygii The item next to the vert like Tim mentioned is a fish scale looks like a Gar fish, Lepisosteus sp., which are extremely common in the HC. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
