Hi all,
I have a few more finds I'm not sure about from Antwerp. There is what looks like a crab claw section. Not sure if it is a fossil though! Looks very much like a normal crab claw.

As always, any help on identification would be appreciated!

A big thanks,

Colin.

Hello Colin, number 4 is definitely a bone, but i can't place it. It look fishy, a bit. Number 5 is also a kind of bone. I think it's a little flat for a crab claw, but that isn't my expertise.

I would think number 4 might be a bird bone.

Thanks for the info Martijn.

Seems that the crab claw pic never made it. I will post it again soon. I thought maybe 5 looked a little like a shell from maybe a turtle or something. The pattern seems very symmetrical although it looks like bone!

Thanks again for your help.

Cheers,

Colin.

Thanks Frederik.

I was thinking a long the same lines as in bird bones, was not certain though.

Appreciate your help.

Cheers,

Colin.

Thanks Strandjutters.

Seems like that is the second hammerhead tooth I have found.

Thanks for your help.

Colin.

Hey Gigi,

thanks for the confirmation of the Sphyrna zygaena and bird bone which I was most unsure about.

Cheers,

Colin.
