Figure 10

Shark teeth from lamniform (Carcharidae) sharks (from different jaw positions) from the Middle Eocene (Lutetian) gravels at Dalum. (1–8) Carcharodon auriculatus (Blainville, 1818): (1) upper jaw anterior tooth (SCB no. Sel-26), mirrored, (2) upper jaw anterolateral tooth (SCB no. Sel-25), (3) upper jaw anterior lateral tooth (SCB no. Sel-27), mirrored, (4) upper jaw posterior lateral tooth (SCB no. Sel-65), mirrored, (5) lower jaw anterior tooth (SCB no. Sel-4), mirrored, (6) lower jaw anterolateral tooth (SCB no. Sel-5), mirrored, (7) lower jaw anterior lateral tooth (SCB no. Sel-7), (8) lower jaw posterior lateral tooth (SCB no. Sel-66; (1-2(a)) labial and (b) lateral, (3–10), labial views). (9-10) Carcharocles sokolovi (Jaeckel, 1895): (1) lower anterior tooth (SCB no. Sel-85) and (2) lower anteriolateral tooth (SCB no.
