New bones were discovered Thursday on a wooded lot where Orange County investigators found a skull and other skeletal remains a week ago, the sheriff's office said.
Sheriff's Capt. Angelo Nieves said the new bones were found on the perimeter of the search area off Suburban Drive where investigators and crime-scene technicians have been working since last week.
Investigators have suggested the remains could be those of missing toddler Caylee Marie Anthony, who disappeared in June.
The sheriff's spokesman also made a surprise announcement that the utility worker who reported finding the remains last week also made calls to authorities on three days in August.Text size: increase text sizedecrease text size

A Broadmoor patient has pleaded guilty to killing former model Rachel Nickell, who was stabbed 49 times in front of her young son 16 years ago.
The 23-year-old was attacked as she walked with her two-year-old son on Wimbledon Common in south-west London on 15 July 1992.
Robert Napper, 42, pleaded guilty to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.
An Old Bailey judge said Napper would now be held in Broadmoor indefinitely.
Mr Justice Griffiths Williams said: "You are on any view a very dangerous man.
"You still present a very high risk of sexual homicide which can only be managed in a high security hospital."
Paranoid schizophrenia
Victor Temple QC, prosecuting, said two psychiatrists agreed that at the time of the killing Napper suffered from paranoid schizophrenia and Asperger's syndrome.
He said after consultation with police, lawyers and the victim's family it had been decided that it was "proper and appropriate" to accept the plea.
The plea ends one of the most high-profile crimes dealt with by the Metropolitan Police.
In 1994, Colin Stagg, from Roehampton, south-west London, went on trial for the murder, but the case was thrown out after evidence from an undercover policewoman was ruled inadmissible.
