This catalog contains very well preserved and unique teeth from the Sand Tiger shark - Odontaspis ferox. These teeth show exceptional color and exquisite detail. A key characteristic of the Odontaspis ferox is a narrow crown with spike-like side cusps. Pliocene age (4 million years ago). This is an incredible group of museum to near museum quality teeth - extra large size.
These teeth are very fragile and easily lose their side cusps. Complete teeth are very difficult to locate. Note - there has been no new supply of Chilean teeth since 2006.
Note - All teeth sizes are slant height unless otherwise noted.
