Carcharomodus (Isurus) escheri
This catalog contains exceptional teeth from a very rare and unique Lamnid (Mako) shark - Carcharomodus (Isurus) escheri. Carcharomodus escheri is a late Miocene age shark that evolved from Carcharodon (Isurus) hastalis and added characteristic of crenulated or "very fine wavy serrations" to the cutting edge. The serrations are much finer and different than those of the Great White transition teeth (Carcharodon hubbelli) that are found in Chile, Peru, and elsewhere. The Carcharomodus escheri is a dead end lineage that disappeared early in the Pliocene. These teeth were collected in "De Kuilen" sand pit, Mill, The Netherlands. Age is late Miocene (approx. 6-8 million years ago). The teeth from the Mill come in varying quality. I have a small group of exceptional teeth to offer from this rare species that are complete and well preserved.
