    • Hi @david-hanes, this looks like the left hypoplastron of an emydid turtle. I used Pseudemys as my reference and it looks pretty similar, but I am no expert in turtles and tortoises. I think we can pretty confidently ID it down to the Family Emydidae, though.

    • Sean,

      I appreciate your help. I will update the specimen record with this info.

      This sand bar on Tishomingo Greek collected a variety of items/fossils. It was normal to find Cretaceous mollusca (the Exogyra species) along with disarticulated more recent fossil bones, even Indian artifacts.

      Dave

    • Glad I could help @david-hanes!
