In this paper I present the results of an analysis of prehistoric archaeological faunal remains from a coastal site near Osprey, FL. Notably, shark dermal denticles (scales) as well as remains from four shark species (teeth and vertebrae) and one ray, with 33 species of bony fish and 37 species of molluscan remains were found. One bone fragment of a West Indian Monk seal was also found in a human burial.
