Oregon Coast Agates Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Hello all, Looking to see if anyone recognizes what this might be? Found in the Newport Area of the Central Oregon Coast under the bay bridge during low tide. It even has some unrelated barnacles growing on it! I have absolutely no idea what to make of this. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieLynn Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 sure looks like bone. Other than that, it is probably difficult to get any closer to ID, being a random fragment. www.fossil-quest.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Dente Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 I’m not sure what it belongs to but my first guess would be part of the rostrum of a long snouted odontocete. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boesse Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 @Al Dente has it - this is the base of a dolphin rostrum. Too partial to identify past Odontoceti. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
