English: Comparison of the lamnid-like shark Archaeolamna apophysata, and the whale shark Eorhincodon tianshanensis, from the Late Eocene of the Tarim Basin, Inner Mongolia.
Note: This historical image is not a factually accurate paleontological restoration.
Reason: Eorhincodon tianshanensis is no longer considered to be a whale shark, so this hypothetical depiction loses its value.
You may ask further questions about the accuracy of this image at the image review page of Wikiproject Palaeontology on the English Wikipedia. Note that this image may be appropriate to illustrate obsolete paleontological views.
