Conversely the increase in baleen whale size may have contributed to the extinction of megalodon, as they may have preferred to go after smaller whales; bite marks on large whale species may have come from scavenging sharks. Megalodon may have simply become coextinct with smaller whale species, such as Piscobalaena nana. [107]

Jurassic relatives of Megalodon such as Pachyrisma grande were closely related to the rudists. [2]
