Carcharodon carcharias
Updated, thanks! @bill-heim
Is the geological context correct for this specimen? I haven’t found any teeth on bethany beach aside from these two before and I haven’t been able to find a concrete description for any teeth found there or what formation they’re derived from so any information or guidance on finding the right information would be appreciated. @bill-heim
Bethany formation is right for the area. Problem with beach collected fossils is that they could come from a number of places including someone’s pocket. https://www.dgs.udel.edu/delaware-geology/unit/bethany-formation
Cool, thank you @bill-heim
Since this is the only specimen from there, I am hesitant to mark it as the providence of this fossil is unknown. If additional specimens come to light, I will change my mind.
