Isurus xiphodon
- Big-tooth
Mako Catalog #1
Tooth Size = 2-5/8" to >
3"
This catalog contains very nice and extra
large teeth from the
Big-tooth Mako shark, Isurus xiphodon (aka Isurus hastalis - wide form). Isurus
xiphodon teeth are noted for their extra wide triangular
crowns and rectangular, heavy roots. These teeth exhibit tan, orange, pink, gray
or blue colored crowns with tan to mahogany-red roots. There are new light blue
crown and tan to white root teeth coming on the market now. They are very showy, making them an excellent
addition to your Mako shark tooth collection. Note - these teeth have been
cleaned of matrix (very difficult) and do not show any of the mineral
discoloration common to many of the Chilean Makos on the market. These
are top quality Mako teeth from Chile. No repair in this group!
Note - all teeth sizes are slant height unless otherwise
noted. Click on photos to enlarge.
