Galeorhinus

Galeorhinus is a genus of houndshark containing one extant species, the widespread but highly threatened school shark (G. galeus), and several extinct species dating back to the Late Cretaceous (Cenomanian).

The majority of extinct species are known only from fossil teeth, but the Early Eocene-aged species G. cuvieri is known from extremely well-preserved full-body specimens from Monte Bolca, Italy. The oldest known species is G. glickmani from the Cenomanian of Russia.
