This catalog contains very nice specimens from the Snaggletooth shark, Hemipristis serra. Hemipristis serra or Snaggletooth shark is an extinct species of Weasel shark which evolved during the Oligocene epoch. The Hemipristis shark exists today, but it is smaller than its Miocene - Pliocene cousin. Baja Hemipristis teeth were Miocene age (15 million years ago) and Pliocene aga (2.2 MYA). The Snaggletooth shark teeth are very unique and significantly vary in design depending upon tooth position in the jaw. They are highly sought after by collectors. These teeth are from a very old collection of rare Baja, Mexico shark teeth.
