Figure 41a–c View Fig

Material 1 specimen, Calabrian , Armuelles FM , Pacific Panama, PPP 3235 ( NMB P15819 View Materials ) .

Discussion Te single, slightly eroded otolith from the Armuelles FM ( Fig. 41c View Fig ) resembles extant otoliths of C. andrei well but show a postdorsal projection that protrudes as much as the postventral projection, i.e., more strongly than observed in the two extant specimens

( Fig. 41a–b View Fig ). We consider these small differences to reflect a degree of variability.
