Jaekelotodus trigonalis ? from Kazakhstan, Mangyshlak,
Brett Breakin' Rocks posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi There, I just wanted to confirm that I think (?) these are examples of the large Sand Tiger shark from the Chattian. Jaekelotodus trigonalis ? ...

From the album: Cenozoic Sharks
This tooth shares characteristics of Otodus mugodzharicus, but there's a twist: it was found in the locality of Tushbair that produces teeth dating back to the lower Bartonian; much younger than when Otodus mugodzharicus would have swam the Earth's oceans. Possibly a megalolamna ancestor? -
