1 year ago1 year agoI will look into it and see what images I can find to compare. If it helps this is only about 2.5 inches long so it will need to be a small fish I think

Where was this found?
-
Ladonia Fossil Park

That area has Cretaceous and Pleistocene deposits, you can find fossils of plesiosaurs, mosasaurs, and more. I can’t say for sure what that jaw belongs to, but it’s an awesome find worth finding more about. You could compare it to other fossils found in the area or ask a local expert.

It already looks great, I wouldn’t risk trying to prepare it unless you’re sure it won’t damage it

The teeth signal Xiphactinus. But that’s only comparing existing fossils to this one

Nice fish! I will contact some experts to see if an ID is possible.
