convergent evolution is cray cray. wdym these guys aren't at all related to modern swordfish, and they both just evolved pointy noses separately??
Partial pair of fossilized fish fin bones of a Protosphyraena sp. from the Niobrara Chalk in Kansas, United States. The pectoral fins of this Cretaceous aged fish are distinct and easily recognizable. These basal relatives of teleost fish convergently resemble swordfish or marlin having a pointed bill.
Everyone, do the Niobrara Jive!
