The largest shark in the fossil record is the megalodon (Otodus megalodon), a colossal Neogene lamniform. The range of estimates of the maximum length for megalodon are from 17 to 20.3 m (56 to 67 ft), with a mass ranging from 65 to 114 short tons (59 to 103 t). [44] [45] [46] It is also regarded as the largest macro-predatory fish ever.
In 2020, Cooper and his colleagues reconstructed a 2D model of megalodon based on the dimensions of all the extant lamnid sharks and suggested that a 16 meters (52 ft) long megalodon would have had a 4.65 m (15.3 ft) long head, 1.41 m (4 ft 8 in) tall gill slits, a 1.62 m (5 ft 4 in) tall dorsal fin, 3.08 m (10 ft 1 in) long pectoral fins, and ...
Megalodon is an extinct genus of bivalve molluscs that reportedly lived from the Devonian to the Jurassic period. [1] It is not clear, however, that all the fossils assigned to Megalodon from that span of time really belong in the same genus. Jurassic relatives of Megalodon such as Pachyrisma grande were closely related to the rudists. [2]
The species megalodon (pictured), the largest shark ever, belongs to this group. [24] †Palaeocarchariidae (?) Palaeocarchariidae: 1 1 A Late Jurassic shark considered one of the closest relatives to the Lamniformes, alternately placed in its own order. †Pseudocoracidae: Pseudocoracidae: 2 7
The megamouth shark (Megachasma pelagios) is a species of deepwater shark.Rarely seen by humans, it measures around 5.2 m (17 ft) long and is the smallest of the three extant filter-feeding sharks alongside the relatively larger whale shark and basking shark.
The Lamniformes also include the extinct megalodon, Otodus megalodon. Orectolobiformes: They are commonly referred to as the carpet sharks, including zebra sharks, nurse sharks, wobbegongs, and the whale shark. Pristiophoriformes: These are the sawsharks, with an elongated, toothed snout that they use for slashing their prey.
Osmotic challenge: American eels spawn in the sea but spend most of their adult life in freshwater, returning only to spawn. The skin of a teleost is largely impermeable to water, and the main interface between the fish's body and its surroundings is the gills.
