Evolution of Dental Tissues and Paleobiology in Selachians offers a complete overview of the terminology used to describe fish tooth microstructures, focusing on the evolution of the teeth microstructure of the cartilaginous fishes. Enameloid microstructure has become a powerful tool to decipher the phylogenetic affinities of isolated fossil chondrichthyan teeth, and, more particularly, to study the transition between the hybodont and modern elasmobranchs. However, this field of research remains quite cryptic, mostly due to limited taxon sampling. As a result, numerous...
