Oftentimes when i pull colorful teeth out of the ground, it's hard to tell how they end up looking after oxidizing over a few days, but will try to post a tooth called zephyr shortly, it's got a really rich dusk purple on the labial side even after oxidizing. He developed linear regression equations for each of the tooth positions to correlate a measurement of crown height (cw) to the tl of the shark My wife and i just returned from a trip out west (western usa for our international friends) which featured a trip to the famous miocene site near bakersfield

Ernst quarry or sharktooth hill, whichever name you prefer
As most of you know this site it well known for the rich fauna of sharks teet.
The fungus causes especially large outbreaks in seasons that are abnormally wet, followed by very hot and dry conditions as are typical in bakersfield (shark tooth hill is practically ground zero for the stuff) and the tar seeps around mckittrick and elsewhere. I've been searching for shark teeth my whole life and used to have some great spots in the summerville/ladson area in ditches, creeks, and hidden gems Unfortunately, many of those creeks have since been filled in with sand and dirt, which was a huge loss for fossil hunters like myself. My past two trips to ramanessin brook in holmdel, nj have been especially productive
Resulting in much larger teeth and much more diverse finds, ramanessin has proven to be a much better spot than big brook for me Here are the finds from the first trip Many large anterior goblin shark teeth Michigan was high and dry from the mesozoic and later, the ages for these types of teeth (except for the great lakes which are fresh water)
These look like shark teeth that are found in coastal areas,tx, la, fla, the carolinas and california.
The arches were cartilaginous in life and disintegrate quickly after death The centrum sometimes survives as a fossil because it is at least partially ossified Because they aren't solid bone, they are fragile. Here are some of my finds from post oak creek in sherman, texas today
It was my first time back in 3 years and we had a pretty good afternoon Lots of other fossil hounds out today, up and down the creek My favorite find of the day was the shark tooth stuck in matrix, followed closely by the tw. A quick trip to green's mill run with a few surprise finds (and a very brief aurora, nc visit) belemnite cretaceous gmr greens mill run north carolina peedee formation pliocene shark teeth skolithos yorktown formation
