jpbowden Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Had to go into town today and get a load of boxes, as we are packing to move. But this is another story, anyway found a van full and saw a few nice looking layers that needed to be checked out and they had a load of nice looking Texigryphaea (These are all I took) laying about and some echinoids. There were also some nice gastropods and fish vertebra laying about, must have had a good rain here also. Got home and started cleaning the dust of of them when to my surprise, one had been made the main coarse of some Pycnodonts meal! It need farther cleaning but will be done in time. If you look close it starts with two round punctures and then down to the "can opener" part of the tooth. These are the front two teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
