Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Life reconstruction of Serrasalmimus secans. Tis reconstruction illustrates the putative feeding behaviour of this piranha-jawed pycnodont, as predator of sof-bodied animals such as cuttlefshes (foreground) and facultative ectoparasite of large animals such as primitive devil rays (background). Te head, squamation and body outline are based on Gyrodus, the most closely related pycnodont taxon known from complete skeletons.
Deutsch: Lebendrekonstruktion von Serrasalmimus secans. Die Rekonstruktion stellt die mögliche Ernährungsweise dieses piranhaartigen Pycnodonten als Beutegreifer von weichhäutigen Tieren wie Tintenfischen (Vordergrund) und fakultativen Ektoparasiten an großen Tieren dar, etwa ursprünglichen Teufelsrochen (Hintergrund). Kopf, Schuppenbedeckung und Körperumriss sind an Gyrodus angelehnt, dem nächsten Verwandten innerhalb der Pycnodontiformes, der von Skelettfunden bekannt ist.
