Baharipristis

Baharipristis is an extinct genus of Cretaceous sawskate with one unique species called Baharipristis bastetiae. It was described from the Cenomanian-aged Bahariya Formation of Gebel Ghorabi, Egypt.

Description

Not much is known about this fish. However, we do know that like most members of the Ganopristidae and also the whole Sclerorhynchoidei, it had a long rostrum with denticles.
