Why Study Shark Tooth
Evolution?
• Sharks are cartilaginous • Teeth are calcified – long lasting• Good for pre-historic shark
morphology, predation techniques, and environmental conditions.
• Common ancestor with bony fishes: feeding behaviors can shed light on vertebrate feeding systems function and evolution. (Motta 2001, 132)

Examples of Extinct Mako Teeth
• Sharp, needle like teeth usually indicate a diet consisting primarily of fish. Pointy teeth are good for catching streamlined-slippery prey.

-Broadly Triangular, thick, with fine serrations.

Otodus Obliquus
• A direct descendent of the Megalodon (Carcharocles megalodon). A more triangular smooth blade.
• ReefQuest

Great White Shark (Carcharodon carcharias)
Broadly triangular, flattened, coarsely serrated. –ReefQuest

Other Shark Teeth Morphologies• There are also benthic feeding sharks with plate-like
teeth for crushing the shells of their prey, and filter feeders like the whale shark whose teeth are tiny and useless. (Shark Savers)

Megalodon-Great White Theory (pros)• Tooth morphology
– size and shape– Linnaean System (Early 1800’s)
• Heterochrony– Size and shape are a result of
differences in the timing of development • Vertebras
– similar

Conservation
Conservation: Studying shark teeth sheds light on feeding strategy and environmental
conditions which would allow conservationists to make more informed decisions
regarding the ecosystems and prey necessary to sustain a population of
Great Whites. Also, understanding their
evolution could shed light on the possible adaptive
strategies utilized by sharks in response to changing
environments.
