unknown shark teeth

[Flandricus]

Hello!

 

A couple of days ago me and a friend went digging for shark teeth (region Antwerp, Belgium). Went to a different spot, so im not sure about the sediment layers. It was dredged from the Scheldt river, so I guess its mixed again. We found a lot of hastalis, piece of a meg and some striatolamia. So I think the sediment contains Paleogene and Neogene fossils.

 

There are 2 teeth found that had a different color and came from the same species (we think). But we couldnt figure out which one. They are curved, have a wide root and seem to have 2 small cusplets on only 1 side. Maybe its a transitional spieces? Im not sure.

 

Here are some pictures:

 

 

The big one;

Allow me to correct myself, the big one is oxyrinchus, but the smaller one seems to be an Araloselachus vorax with most of the cusps broken off..
