Hi!

 

im helping a local natural history society with collecting information and researching the stethacanthus! Unfortunately I can’t find many good photos of their teeth or mouth anatomy. Do any of you guys have specimens Youre willing to share, or articles that go into detail on their teeth and mouths? I’m creating a board, and if you send a photo of your specimens I’ll make sure to give credit!!

thank you so much!!! (Heres my board so far! Painted by me!!)

Wonderful artwork! I cannot even draw a convincing stick figure so folks with artistic talents are like magicians to me. :)

 

Sounds like imagery of the dental aspects this unusual proto-shark are kind of rare. We'll see if any of our members have access to any imagery.

 

I can see one tooth in some of our members' galleries here:

Some images are pictured on page 709 of the attached PDF.
