South Carolina - Carcharhinus obscurus This catalog contains exceptional teeth from Carcharhinus obscurus, the Dusky shark. These Carcharhinus obscurus teeth are noted for their slightly hooked crowns, fine serrations, and flat roots. These teeth are from the Pliocene (approx. 4 million years ago). Please note that the large size and exceptional color of these teeth is what sets them apart with honey colored crowns (better color than most Lee Creek teeth!) and solid white roots. Very unique and highly attractive specimens from a somewhat common species. All perfect or near perfect specimens. These teeth come from a Ridgeville, SC land site and are Pliocene in age. Note - all teeth sizes are slant height unless otherwise noted. Click on photos to enlarge. Catalog updated March 19, 2006. Note - Left photo --> upper data & right photo = bottom data.
