fossilsrock Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I'm not confident I can separate a Meg from a Chubutensis. If I see any kind of bump on the sides, could it still be a Meg? This came from Maryland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmorefossil Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 it would be called a chub because of the bumps, i guess this will be my last post on the forum and im going out with a maryland how much better can it get. nice tooth maybe we will meet one day.

Auspex Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 To me, the serrations on these Chubs are proportionally longer than those on megs; I don't think it just about the bump-cusps.
