Meganeura Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 (edited) Was digging/sorting through my fossils this morning - had a couple that I hadn’t yet gotten ID’d and wanted to ask about! So first is this tooth I originally thought was Carcharhinus of some kind, but on a close look it’s got no serrations at all, which is making me wonder if it’s a C. Hastalis? Second up is… whatever this is. Fish mouth plate of some kind? One side of it the “bubbles” pop out, the other side they’re craters. And finally, what I originally thought was gator tooth, then thought may have been antler, and I’m now back to thinking tooth but not sure what: Thanks in advance!

Meganeura Posted May 27, 2022 Author Share Posted May 27, 2022 @Shellseeker I know you're often on peace river, so do you have any insight into what the tooth may be? Fossils? I dig it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shellseeker Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 I think beaver is most likely. The shark tooth is C hastalis. Nice finds. 1 The White Queen ".... in her youth she could believe "six impossible things before breakfast" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SawTooth Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 #2 may be gator scute fragment, unless those are pictures of both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pictures 1 and 2 of #2 are the same side, 3 is of the reverse. Fossils? I dig it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
