I purchased this tooth from Dakhla Bay, Morocco. It's 1.1 cm long and appears to be Galeocerdo. It was advertised as Galeocerdo alabamensis. However, I can't find records of that species from Morocco, or outside of the United States for that matter. I know that Galeocerdo eaglesomi exists in Morocco. This doesn't look like one to me.

 

Anyone know what it might be?

 

Thank you,

Bellamy

It is a really late stage Galeocerdo latidens (alternatively, an really early Galeocerdo aduncus). It is upper eocene in age.
