No effects of abiotic and anthropogenic factors on reef-associated neonate shark abundance within a shark nursery-area system

Marine and Freshwater Research
Context Coastal habitats function as shark nursery areas; however, coastal habitats can experience extreme variation in abiotic conditions and are susceptible to human disturbances. Aims Drivers of abundance were tested within a shark nursery-area system

Shark bite wounds of the valvular intestine: The cause of an acute mortality syndrome of captive blacktip reef sharks, Carcharhinus melanopterus

Zoo Biology, 1991
AbstractDuring 1987–1990 nine cases of mortality in captive blacktip reef sharks (Carcharhinus melanopterus) were attributed to bite wounds to the valvular intestine. Necropsies revealed lacerations, amputation of the scroll valve folds, or complete severance of the valvular intestine.

Use of Sand Ripples to Enhance Chafing in Caribbean Reef Sharks (Carcharhinus Perezi) and Blacktip Sharks (Carcharhinus Limbatus)

Bulletin of Marine Science, 2011
Although chafing-the rubbing of a body on the sea floor-is a common response of sharks to the attachment of irritating sharksuckers (Echeneis spp.), this behavior has not yet been analyzed in detail. I focused on the different forms and functions of chafing, with special emphasis on the use of sand ripples by sharks during chafing. A significant number

Connectivity and population structure of blacktip reef sharks, Carcharhinus melanopterus, in two islands in Terengganu, Malaysia

2016
In the last decades sharks and their population dynamics are increasingly studied because of their importance for the ecosystems and their high sensitivity to overfishing and anthropological activities, due to their long gestation period, slow reproducing rate, slow growth, and high level of maternal investment (Dulvy et al., 2014).
