User Flair now active

Our Sub's User Flair is now active. Have fun! How to choose what's right for YOU..

  1. Enthusiastic Amateur....Basically a "newbie" who enjoys the hobby!

  2. ⁠Avid Hunter...You're out there searching whenever you get the chance!

  3. ⁠Collector...You just enjoy adding new teeth whether finding them, buying them or trading for them or in other ways!

  4. ⁠Professor... You know your stuff and constantly and correctly help others with their questions. Don't be modest. If this applies to you use it. It identifies you to others and gives them confidence in your answers!

  5. ⁠Junior Professor... You know a lot about the subject and can answer questions with a reasonably high degree of certainty, but you feel you still have a little ways to go. You're in good company

  6. ⁠Dive Master... No need to hold an actual master certificate, it just means your preferred way of collecting means being under water!

  7. ⁠Beach Comber...Because for you, finding salty sand teeth is the life! (Or maybe because it's your primary option)

  8. ⁠Creek Crawler...For you nothing beats dodging snakes, gators and skeeters in search of the perfect tooth!

  9. ⁠Fossil Fanatic... Teeth are great, but you're just as happy with any and all other prehistoric prizes!

  10. ⁠All About The Megs... all shark teeth are neat, but hey..a Meg?? Come on now!!

This tooth is odd. It’s anatomically similar to Hemipristis sp., but lacks the extreme serrations on the distal(?) side. I want to say it’s either a juvi hemi species, or some type of closely related genus, but I can’t rule out houndsharks.

I bought this from a girls who's ex left his fossils. I asked if she knew where the seller said it was from and she cant remember. I believe this tooth is from Morocco because of the color. I have multiple teeth from Morocco and it looks the same with color and other characteristics. Maybe im wrong with locality. At first i thought otodus obliquus but i never seen one with the root this way or the curve. Then i had this weird thought what if its a hubble tooth, but if so what shark. This tooth kinda looked like a ginsu shark but it just wasnt adding up with the way it looked. Any help would be awesome. Thank you.

ID Request Too broken to indentify?

Found this tooth a few months ago along the coast of Belgium.

Only reason I'm curious to know what it is, is because it's the only tooth out of the hundred ones I've found there that has (albeit very worn down) serrated edges. Since it's not complete either, I doubt I'll find out what it is. The only ones known to be found on that beach with serrations are GW, meg, or something like hempiristis but I think this is unlikely due to the shape. I don't have a photo of the other side rn but it doesnt seem to have the typical dark edge of a meg tooth, but that may have just broken off, I have a rather small piece.

I purchased this from a store in Venice beach and it was labeled as a mako tooth but I’m curious if it’s a short fin or a long fin mako tooth?
