Abstract:In the last years, new findings and new methods (stable isotopes of oxygen, zinc and nitrogen, 2D and 3D modelling, geometric morphometric analyses of the teeth) have enhanced our knowledge of the Neogene shark fauna and its palaeobiology. Several papers deal with the large Otodus (Megselachus) species, including the construction of a 3D model as well as insights into lifestyle and diet. In addition, skeletal remains of Carcharias gustrowensis, Carcharodon hastalis, Keasius parvus and a natural tooth set of Ca… Show more
