FOSSIL UPLOAD
First, make sure you have a myFOSSIL account, this is required to upload your fossil information. If you are interested in seeing if your fossil can be used for research purposes, please follow through the following steps. They walk you through the information needed and why it is helpful for other scientists to use it for research questions. Even if the information you have on your fossil is not enough to be used for research purposes it will still benefit the community through educational means and help others identify their fossils. Specimens that have sufficient information will be uploaded to iDigBio and GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility) for public accessibility.
If you have already gone through the stepwise process that explains each piece of data please click through to a summary tab where you can enter in your specimen data on a single page.

@sam-jernigan this looks like Negaprion, the lemon shark! You can add that to the classification column and use the taxon wizard to fill in the higher taxonomy. If you would like it to be marked research grade, you’ll have to add the location, lithostratigraphy, and geochronology. Let me know if you have any questions with this and tag me if you finish!
