Differentiating sand tigers is a tough task. Carcharias samhammeri, Carcharias holmdelensis, and Odontaspis aculeatus are three known from the American Campanian and likely make up the majority of these smaller teeth in my opinion. C. holmdelendisis typically has fine striations on the lingual surface and a prominent nutrient groove.
