Dear colleagues

I obtained a sample of what was described as pharyngeal teeth of
Eotrigonodon serratus, form the Eocene of Balegem (Belgium): nice,
claw-like fossils of about 10 mm in height, evidently stemming from some
fish. I am no ichtyologist, even less a palaeoichtyologist, and despite
efforts both on the www and the literature (incl. M=FCller's Lehrbuch der
Palaeozoologie) I did not succeed in finding the taxonomic position of th=
e
species. Could someone please give my a hint? Thanks in advance! Willem
