Harry Pristis Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 (edited) image.jpgimage.jpg Is this an angustiden? Or is it some other kind of sharks tooth? Note that the trivial name is angustidens with an "s" at the end. The word is both singular and plural -- one angustidens and fifteen angustidens. It is, I believe, a Latin compound word meaning "narrow tooth." (Latin scholars, feel free to correct me.) Edited July 30, 2013 by Harry Pristis Link to post Share on other sites
