Rhomaleosaurus a pliosaur. It looks like a crocodile crossed with a modern killer whale.  It seems to represent a line that diverged early from the better known plesiosaurs and pliosaurs.  Unlike its relatives in may have breathed through its open mouth, using its nostrils for the sampling of water. The Frilled shark,Chlamydoselachus, feed mainly on cephalopods, while also consuming bony fishes and other sharks. Still extant but rare it is regarded a primative member of the modern shark or neoselachians. Rhomaleosaurus CollectA
