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.

Paging @Jeanette-Pirlo and @SMoran for help with ID!
This appears to be horse, Equus sp. I believe that it is also the first lower molar
Which one?
specimen 62660, third picture dorsal tooth surface is triangular which would indicate that the tooth was at the end of the row. Upper teeth molars are quite rectangular and broader than lower molars and the end teeth are tapered at one end. I’m not an expert but check this site for comparison http://www.lilbeginnings.com/info/health3/
Thanks, I understand now after looking at your link.
Thank you, @LCone!! @Delwin-Glasner, do you know what formation this is from?
No, I don’t know formations
