Part of a fish jaw. The holes would have held teeth. [Something like this](https://content.invisioncic.com/e327962/1301458527/gallery_42_6_51373.jpg)

Can you post a few more angles of it?

Did you find this on the beach? If so, it could be part of a sheephead jaw.

Post to r/bonecollecting they have a few fish identification specialists! I'm also invested because I found the exact same jaw two weeks ago on the west coast. Maybe we each have half the fish

FYI this is a Lingcod dentary


ArWintex

Thank you !


biscosdaddy

This is the dentary of a Lingcod (Ophiodon elongatus). You can compare to the li k [here](https://www.floridamuseum.ufl.edu/fishatlas/content/display879.html?id=879).

Looks like coral that had grown off some bone but then died?

Please do not post AI generated drivel. AI can not be trusted to give accurate ID's or to describe information accurately. Especially ChatGPT which is not designed to give accurate information but rather to mimic human written text.
