The sawfish such as the Libanopristis hiram have a snout stretching into a rostrum laterally holding small teeth. The pectoral fins, well developed, join the rostrum and the head is not individualized from the body. This family, which is not directly related to the present day sawfish, is localized in the Cretaceous. The sawfish measures 54 cm. Please note that fossils are nearly always found by splitting vast amount of rocks. This means that most fossils will be glued in some place, most will have a small part chipped away.
