Angustidens Shark Tooth

This lower jaw angustidens tooth is a spike! It's completely symmetrical for that quintessential shark tooth triangle shape. The root is massive, almost like an auriculatus, but not quite. The bourlette is magnificent - Finding this tooth made my day!
Age Oligocene Epoch
Category Shark Teeth
Formation Chandler Bridge Formation
Location Dorchester County, South Carolina, USA
Species Carcharocles angustidens
Length 2 3/8 inches

ID3435
Memberdw
Date Added8/2/2009

Here's the ground shot - you can just make out the triangle shape in the middle of the picture. The rapids in the water made it tough to get a good photo.
