Moroccan Miocene and middle Eocene Shark Teeth
Please page down to see the Megalodon and Auriculatus shark teeth (below). Click on Scientific Names to go to
Miocene Makos catalog.
This catalog contains exciting new material from the
western ("Spanish") Sahara region of Morocco. This very remote area is producing small quantities of
Miocene and a middle Eocene age shark teeth including Megalodon, Isurus
hastalis, and Auriculatus teeth. I
have heard stories of Moroccan Megs for years, but I have never seen one. Now
you can own one of these rarities!
Note - all teeth sizes are slant height unless otherwise
noted. Click on photos to enlarge.

Carcharocles auriculatus (Extinct
Giant White Shark)
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 middle Eocene (Lutetian? - 42 million years
ago). Exceptional quality
Auriculatus teeth are now coming out of northern Morocco in very limited
quantities. A very rare
find in Morocco!

Carcharocles megalodon (Extinct
Giant White Shark)
This catalog contains rare
Megalodon teeth from the
most highly sought fossil shark tooth - the Extinct Giant White shark, Carcharocles
megalodon.
These teeth are from the middle Miocene ( ~14 million years
ago). A very rare
find in Morocco. Few will ever have a Meg from this location! I have seen about
100 of these Meg teeth, and 95% are broken or repaired. There are essentially no
top quality Megs coming out. The few that appear to be high quality are
typically repaired and the prices are crazy high - buyer beware!
