Hello everyone, Im back again with more fossils to identify... This time they are shark teeth I received from Filipe Vieira ( @Vieira ) during a blind trade organized on this very forum. The trade went very well, I was extremely pleased with what he gave me. Unfortunately, there are a few of the shark teeth that he couldn't identify. They all come from Sesimbra, Portugal, from which the fossils date to the Miocene period, about 20 million years ago. In case you cannot see it in the photos, they all have small serrations (except for the third tooth). Some of the possibilities: lemon shark (Negaprion brevirostris), bull shark (Carcharinus leucas), Galapagos shark (Carcharinus galapagensis), hammerhead shark (Sphyrnidae), and blue shark (Prionace glauca), etc... If you want individual photos of one of the teeth, feel free to ask me in the comments below! Thank you already for your help, Max
