Hi, @helen-harless – Do you remember where you found this specimen?
If your identificaiton is correct the Order is Carchariniformes > Family Carcharhinidae. I will tag in our shark experts to confirm – @bill-heim @fauve-wilson. It’s often most helpful if you have two views of the specimen – either side as the diagnostic features are variable.
Talk to you soon, Jen

Common – Extinct Tiger-like Shark, Genus – Physogaleus, Specific Epithet – contortus
