Rock Hound Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 I have a couple of teeth I am very confident are Megalodon teeth, from the end of the lineage. They have the classic Megalodon, upper jaw tooth profile. I will post a pic of them, purely as a frame of reference. My general ID question, is in relation to the "other teeth" in the next pics which follow afterward. In your opinion, how many and which of those teeth are possibly from somewhere in the Megalodon lineage. Any comments are welcome. I don't know the origin of any of the teeth in question. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock Hound Posted May 9, 2022 Author Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) All of my larger teeth, minus the teeth I know are Otodus teeth from Morocco. Obviously, no need to show those here. Edited May 9, 2022 by Rock Hound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock Hound Posted May 9, 2022 Author Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) Zoomed in a little better, without the measurement reference. Edited May 9, 2022 by Rock Hound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock Hound Posted May 9, 2022 Author Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) The white residue on the bottom middle tooth, is from being mounted in a display case with putty; many years ago. Edited May 9, 2022 by Rock Hound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hemipristis Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) These all appear to be from the megalodon lineage, either C. chubutensis. C. angustidens, or C. auriculatus Edited May 9, 2022 by hemipristis 1 'Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.'
