South Carolina - Carcharodon carcharias
This catalog contains very nice teeth from
a difficult to find fossil shark tooth - the Great White shark, Carcharodon
carcharias. The Carcharodon carcharias is found is much less
quantities than the Megalodon in the SC sites.
These teeth are noted for their
wide triangular crowns which are fully serrated, but relative to the Megalodon
the teeth are much thinner and smaller. These teeth are late Miocene or Pliocene
in age (approx. 4 million years
ago). Note - These SC Great White
teeth are really scarce. The big ones
with complete roots are really rare!
Note - all teeth sizes are slant height unless otherwise
noted. Click on photos to enlarge. Catalog updated
January 3, 2010.
