Aquilolamna is an extinct species of mackerel shark that lived during the Late Cretaceous period, around 90-100 million years ago. It is known from fossilized teeth and vertebrae that have been found in marine deposits in North America, specifically in Kansas, Texas, and New Jersey.
Aquilolamna had a streamlined body shape similar to modern day mackerel sharks, with a long, slender tail and large pectoral fins. It is believed to have been a fast-swimming predator that fed on small fish and other marine organisms.
The exact size of Aquilolamna is not well-known due to the incomplete nature of the fossil record, but it is estimated to have been around 2-3 meters in length.
Overall, Aquilolamna is an interesting and unique addition to the fossil record of prehistoric sharks, providing valuable insight into the diversity and evolution of marine predators during the Late Cretaceous period.
