Shark tooth Cretalamna appendiculata in good condition, preserving its cusps.
Cretolamna was a genus of sharks related to white sharks and more closely, to the famous megalodon.
These Cretaceous sharks were generalists, feeding on a wide variety of fish and small vertebrates, as well as the occasional carrion.
The fossil includes a label with the name and origin and is attached to a 4 cm square cardboard box.

Since the samples are natural, you will receive a piece similar to the one in the photograph. The fossils come in cardboard boxes and are glued to a porex base with hot silicone; these can be removed using ethyl alcohol without damaging the fossil. The size is approximate.
