Sarcoprion

Extinct genus of eugeneodontid fish

Sarcoprion is an extinct genus of eugeneodontid holocephalids from the Permian of Greenland. Similar to other eugeneodontids such as Edestus and Helicoprion, it was best known for its extremely bizarre tooth morphology compared to other species of sharks and their closest relatives, the chimaeras. Compared to other members of the Helicoprionidae, its "tooth whorls" were found to be sharper, more compact, and in better condition than other holocephalians of the time, and refrained from growing to extremely unwieldy forms that would raise questions about its ability to feed properly. The genus contains one species, Sarcoprion edax, found in Permian-aged marine strata of Meddelelser om Grønland.
