South Carolina - Carcharocles
auriculatus
This catalog contains excellent teeth from
C. auriculatus, the first Giant White shark. C.
auriculatus teeth are noted for their triangular crown and very large side
cusps which are
heavily serrated. These teeth are from the Eocene (38 million years
ago).
Please note that all of these C. auriculatus teeth
were found in the Santee Limestone Formation from quarries around Harleyville,
S.C., and exhibit the finest quality preservation.
No "river polish" or artificial shine like you will see on many of the
river derived Auriculatus teeth. These teeth show extraordinary
preservation and detail with razor sharp serrations!
If you are looking for a great C. auriculatus, please have a look!
Note - all teeth sizes are slant height unless otherwise
noted. Click on photos to enlarge. Catalog updated on
April 11, 2010.
I just purchased an
incredible collection of Auricuatus teeth and I can offer the largest
selection of high quality Aurics ever. The Auricuatus is 10
times more rare than the Angustidens and 100 times more rare than the
Megalodon. Get them while they last!!!
Note - The Harleyville area Auriculatus are a late stage of Auriculatus
development
that are also referred to as Carcharocles sokolovi.
