Where did you find it? Sometimes location can help narrow down what it might be!
@sadie-mills thanks for that! I updated the location, found in Charleston, SC.
On a river bank
@lcone do you have any thoughts on what this tooth from SC might be?
@sadie-mills just an update- it was identified by two other sources as a as-yet-undescribed dolphin species from the eurhinodelphinid group, oligocene era! Apparently the holotype is here in Charleston
Hi, @clair-m – it does look like a dolphin tooth! @lcone is certainly the toothy expert of the area and may have more info for you. Would you want to update your classification fields to refelct this? Kingdom Animalia, Phylum Chordata, Class Mammalia, Order Artiodactyla. I’m not sure if we can go further if it’s an undescribed creature!
@jbauer sure!
I agree with @JBauer, @Clair-M; do you know what rock unit this was found in?
I don’t…. I don’t really know what that means 😬
