jpc Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Two upper molars of the Oligocene horse Mesohippus. My own Mesohippus palate is carefully packed away somewhere, so I can't to a direct comparison, but that's what I see there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruitbat Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Here's a picture of a trio of Mesohippus sp. upper molars from Dawes County, Nebraska. They compare very well with the ones you've pictured. -Joe Illigitimati non carborundum Fruitbat's PDF Library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
