These are gorgeous teeth from a moderately sized Moroccan Sand Tiger shark. These teeth were originally described Arambourg (1952), but much of his work has been reclassified. They are large, well preserved, complete (including the exquisite side cusps) and beautiful. The anterior and lateral teeth both have straight crowns with well developed side cusps. Eocene age - approx. 55 million years old. Note - may also be referred to as Carcharias substriata (Stromer 1910).
