1cm Iron Stained Deltodus sp. Tooth


Samurai

Found from the Iola formation in the Raytown Limestone Member. Here is a Deltodus crushing tooth with vibrant orange coring. A lot of the bone material in this limestone is orange and I've only just started to take a closer look at these odd iron replaced teeth.

Great find, really vibrant

For sure! I plan to stabilize the crack to hopefully keep it from crumbling further. It seems most orange teeth dont last too long or get fragmented quite easily like this Calico mystery tooth. 

 

Probably something from eugeneodontida/holocephali
