Hope this is useful:

A1 - answer is (b) a rostral tooth from the Eocene of Egypt

A2 - sorry dunno

A3 - The genus Notorhynchus has seven branchial slits

A4 -Dalpiazia stromeri - Arambourg placed Dalpiazia in synonymy with Ischyrhiza, which he considered as a subgenus of Onchosaurus, and he created the species O. maroccanus.

A5 Synechodus is believed to have became extinct in the lower Paleocene period

A6 - Isurus planus (AGASSIZ 1856) occurs in the Miocene of California.

A7 I'm not sure but think it may be P. crochardi. I know only of Alopias crochardi but am a bit out of date.


Regards

Jim Craig
