Hey all. Found this lovely shark tooth in some siltstone and haven’t been able to get a solid ID on it. i know, don’t ID sharks from one tooth, but if you could, any guesses?

I recently picked up three cow shark teeth with uncertain identifications. I can not be sure myself so I thought I’d get some help sorting this out. First one is 19mm and comes from the Pico Formation, Ventura County California. I believe it is Pliocene in age. I think it is a Hexanchus tooth but Notorynchus is known from at least one So Cal formation similar in age according to fossilworks. It is missing the largest cone. Even though I lean 6 Gill, I’m almost hoping somebody thinks 7 Gill because a California 7 Gill would be sweet lol Either way, it’s a really pretty tooth. Next are two from the Miocene deposits of Gironde France. Notorynchus and Hexanchus are both described from this location and they are small partials. I really can not figure out if I have two Notorynchus or one of each. I’m rooting for a 6 Gill but a great location to add regardless of the ID. All opinions are welcome.

Its been awhile. Ran over to the big sand pit for a few the other day and came up with these certs and one other. Fell from on high so really tough to see what layer they came from.
