T0175: Shark Tooth: Carcharadon cf Carcharias
Miocene. San Mateo Creek Formation, Oceanside, San Diego County, CA. The exposure was in the East side of an ex-quarry/automobile junk yard in Lawrence Canyon(?) on the S side of the San Luis Rey River in Oceanside. It was accessible from the no longer extant Hill Street Off ramp from I5 in Oceanside. A limited access highway -- CA78 -- was subsequently run through the area.
