帆锯鳐属

帆锯鳐属（属名：Onchopristis，意为“（牙齿）有倒钩的锯鳐”）是生存于白垩纪后期的大型淡水鳐^[9]，化石发现于北非、北美与新西兰。其外形与现生的锯鳐科相近，吻部细长，牙齿着生于吻测，但两者并非近亲，且锯鳐科的牙侧光滑无凸起，而帆锯鳐的牙齿在似釉质冠（enameloid cap）以后的区域具有一至五个倒钩^[1][10]。

帆锯鳐属的牙齿与其他锯鳐的比较（红色为努米底亚帆锯鳐，绿色为邓氏帆锯鳐）

吻突长约2.5米（8.2英尺），外部有带刺的牙齿。在两种帆锯鳐中，努米底亚帆锯鳐的每颗牙齿都有一个倒钩，但在邓氏帆锯鳐的每颗牙齿上有两到五个倒钩。^[1]它们可以长到5-6米长。^[13]

古生态学

和现代锯鳐一样，帆锯鳐的眼睛位于头顶，用于发现捕食者而不是猎物，它的嘴和鳃都在它的身体下侧。^[14]它们的吻部很可能会有电感受器来检测它们下面的水中的食物，就像现代的鲨鱼一样。帆锯鳐可能会穿过河床寻找然后吃掉猎物。^[14]

大众文化

帆锯鳐在《Jurassic World™：游戏》 中作为可收集角色登场。

在《恐龙星球》的电视节目中，帆锯鳐被认为是棘龙的主要食物。
