Alf Museum from the myFOSSIL app 3 years, 1 month ago 3 years, 1 month ago3 years, 1 month agoDoes anyone know what kind of crocodilian species this tooth has come from. Found it at Lee On The Solent nearly two weeks ago. It’s from the partly submerged layer of bracklesham beds in Southern England. The outcrop I go to ranges back to the lutitian age of the Eocene epoch. I mostly find shark teeth, ray dental plates, occasionally turtle shell and fish remains. But, this is my first reptile and crocodilian tooth 🙂
By the way it is from a marine deposit.
Well the closest I can guess is diplocynodon because that’s the one you get on the Isle of wight yarmouth, which is close, it could have been washed over. Anyway cool find.
