Squalicorax kaupi is a species of extinct shark that lived during the Late Cretaceous period, around 100 to 66 million years ago. The genus Squalicorax, often referred to as “crow sharks,” is known for its distinctive teeth, which have a broad, triangular shape with serrated edges. These teeth are relatively small compared to other prehistoric sharks but are notable for their sharpness and efficiency in cutting.

 

Squalicorax kaupi is typically found in marine deposits that were once shallow seas, such as those in North America, Europe, and North Africa. These sharks were likely scavengers, feeding on a variety of prey including fish, marine reptiles, and possibly even dinosaur carcasses that washed into the sea.

The teeth of Squalicorax kaupi are popular among fossil collectors due to their distinct shape and the historical period they represent.

Otodus obliquus and Megalodon

The connection between Otodus obliquus and Megalodon lies in their evolutionary relationship. Researchers consider Otodus obliquus an ancestor of Megalodon, with the prevailing belief that Megalodon evolved from a lineage of Otodus species. Fossil evidence suggests a transition from Otodus-like sharks to the larger, more massive Megalodon over millions of years.
