Hi, @grace-barnard – I think we can narrow your classification down some to Order Myliobatiformes and maybe? Family Myliobatidae, correct me if I am wrong, @fauve-wilson.
You can use Macrostrat to narrow in on your collecting locality:https://macrostrat.org/map/#/z=10.6/x=-82.3217/y=29.7107/bedrock/lines/ to get a better idea of geologic time but Minimally you can include Eon Phanerozoic > Era Cenozoic
Talk to you soon,
Jen
Order Myliobatiformes = stingrays. They have a crushing plate made of rows of bars fit together. The smooth side is top part of the plate (biting part) while the ridged part is the root.
