Brevicollis Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 (edited) Hello, I saw these two, apparently Iguanodon tooth fragments from the Wealden group of the Isle of Wight, for sale today. They absolutely dont look like tooth fragments to me, but they appear to have some bubble like texture on them, wich makes me think that they might be some unidentifiable bone fragments. Thanks for any help ! 2.

Anything wrong about that, or why do you seem so astonished ? @Brevicollis: No, but if you have small pieces that you can't determine exactly with only what is preserved, it helps if you know the exact location and the layer. This reduces the number of potential candidates. Many fossils and especially fragments of teeth are very similar from different sites and ages. That's why I asked 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
