This shark could grow to a length of about 3.5 meters (11.5 ft) and its teeth were notably big for its size. It lived in warm, low-salinity, ocean waters all around the world. This species belonged to a family called Sand sharks (Odontaspididae) which still exist today. Three teeth displayed in an acrylic case.
