Saivodus is an extinct genus of ctenacanthiform fish that existed in early Mississippian of the Carboniferous period.[1] Fossils have been found in Ireland, Scotland, England, Belgium, Morocco, and the United States. Teeth assigned to that genus are also known from the Permian (Leonardian) Kaibab Formation.[2]
