The matrix and fish look a lot like the Lycoptera sp. fish fossils from Liaoning, China but without locality data, one can’t be sure. This is an interesting locality famous for the feathered dinosaurs and commonly referred to as the Jehol Biota.

Thank you, @patrick-hsieh

Those are beautiful! Found similar fish in Wyoming.

Rock

I am located in Maryland near the bay frequently find bone fragments some partially fossilized, some complete and some not at all but preserved in a mud flat. I try to go back and collect as much bone in the same area in hopes I might happen on to more information and clues

I have a few of these and am curious to know what they are. Thanks for posting!

@christopher-williams where did you find yours? This is from a stream bed in NJ, finds date from Cretaceous to recent

Very interesting!!! Uploading additional pics that show the other side of the specimen my help the community identify it. Scale would help as well.

Thanks @kirk-hecksel. Updated pictures added.

Dino bone

@smudge-smith if so that’s a pretty good find. What makes you say specifically dinosaur as opposed to fish, etc?

Well I don’t know for certain but it has the pros texture if bone… Were are you hunting?

porous not pros

@smudge-smith Cretaceous. Big Brook, NJ

probably Dino then. If marine beds then probably fish

Big Brook is a marine deposit. While that doesn’t rule out dinosaur, it also makes it much less likely. More likely is mosasaur or plesiosaur. In fact I have found a plesiosaur tooth there. However, there are no distinctive features on this chunk of bone that indicates what kind of animal it came from.

Thanks for your input @bill-heim. There’s definitely cool stuff there-recently found a possible labyrinthodont tooth in the same location. Need a good resource for bone and tooth ID.
