Abstract
and 28*30'N. The embryos were found to contain yolk, demonstrating prenatal nutrition through intrauterine oophagy. Various proportions of embryo anatomy considered diagnostic for these species resemble those of adults. The general gonad morphology and presence of egg capsules containing multiple ova resemble the described development stages of other lamnids, alopiids and Odontaspis taurus (Odontaspidae). This is the first documented observation of oophagy in these species.
