“…Sharks of the genus Galeocerdo (Figures 8, 9) were top predators in these estuaries and nearshore environments. Specimens of Galeocerdo are known from the Eocene to the present (Türtscher et al, 2021), whilst the species G. aduncus , present in the Gorongosa sample, has a temporal range from the Oligocene to the late Miocene (Soto Ovalle, 2016; Türtscher et al, 2021). The genus was widely distributed in the tropical and temperate seas of the Miocene, with specimens found in Madagascar (Andrianavalona et al, 2015), North Africa (Argyriou et al, 2015; Cook, Murray, Simons, Attia, & Chatrath, 2010), Oceania (Fitzgerald, 2004), Eurasia (Marsili, Carnevale, Danese, Bianucci, & Landini, 2007; Villafaña et al, 2020), and the Americas (Carrillo-Briceño, Maxwell, Aguilera, Sánchez, & Sánchez-Villagra, 2015; Landini et al, 2017).…”
