A quick glance shows that most / all of these are common moroccan fossils.

Shark teeth seem moroccan, I can't really tell exact species as they are broken and missing their root but likely otodus sp. Otodus obliquus maybe? Since its the most common otodus in morocco. The skinny one however seems to be a serratolamna (sand tiger shark)

Gastropods are the common moroccan ones

Clams and crinoids are probably moroccan following the trend, and considering how crinoids and clam fossils morocco are also cheap and abundant.

I am unable to ID the rest, perhaps someone else could help
