Chlamydoselachus Goliath

	Chlamydoselachus Goliath ''Rolfodon goliath'' is an extinct species of large frilled shark that lived during the Late Campanian stage of the Late Cretaceous in Angola's southern Benguela Basin. It was described by Miguel Telles Antunes and Henri Cappetta in 2002 during the beginning stages of the PaleoAngola project. Originally it was described as a species belonging to the genus ''Chlamydoselachus ''Chlamydoselachus'' is a genus of sharks and the sole extant member of the family (biology), family Chlamydoselachidae, in the order (biology), order Hexanchiformes.

The holotype, MUS ANG 23, is rather large. This tooth is about 20mm high, and is characterised by straightened, upright cusps with smooth enameloid which lack ornamentation.

	Chlamydoselachus ''Chlamydoselachus'' is a genus of sharks and the sole extant member of the family (biology), family Chlamydoselachidae, in the order (biology), order Hexanchiformes. It contains two extant and several extinct species. The most widely known species still surviving is the frilled shark (''Chlamydoselachus anguineus''). It is known as a living fossil, along with ''Chlamydoselachus africana'', also known as the southern African frilled shark, which is only found along coastal areas of South Africa. The only two extant species of this genus are deep-sea creatures which are typically weakened in areas closer to the surface.
