Nuevos registros de Galeocerdo cuvier (Carcharhinidae) como pesca incidental de la pesca artesanal peruana

open access: diamondRevista Peruana de Biología
Se reportan dos nuevos registros del tiburón tigre Galeocerdo cuvier (Péron & Lesueur, 1822) obtenidos en la pesca artesanal de la costa central del Perú. Los ejemplares fueron capturados incidentalmente durante faenas dirigidas a Myliobatis peruvianus y

Rare evidence of shark-on-shark trophic interactions in the fossil record [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica, 2021
Direct evidence of chondrichthyan trophic interactions in the fossil record is largely limited to bite traces on prey items but may also be found within the gut contents of exceptionally well-preserved individuals or as inclusions within coprolites ...

Limited Evidence for Depth Specialism in Isolated Seamount Reef Predators. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We investigated how depth influences predatory fish assemblages on seamount reefs in the Coral Sea using remotely operated vehicle surveys across a 100 m depth gradient. Predator abundance and species richness declined significantly with depth; yet assemblage composition remained largely consistent, suggesting many taxa utilise a broad depth range ...

Effects of protection on large-bodied reef fishes in the western Indian Ocean. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract Predatory and large‐bodied coral reef fishes have fundamental roles in the functioning and biodiversity of coral reef ecosystems, but their populations are declining, largely due to overexploitation in fisheries. These fishes include sharks, groupers, Humphead wrasse (Cheilinus undulatus), and Green Humphead parrotfish (Bolbometopon muricatum).

In Situ Thrust Measurement of Fish During Locomotion; Test Case: Sharks. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We present a novel method that uses in situ video data of fish locomotion to calculate thrust. This methodology was applied to several large elasmobranch species, which are typically challenging to measure. Our findings indicate that coastal pelagic species exhibited lower scaled thrust than benthic species, suggesting that benthic species may be less ...

Reconstructing historical catch trends of threatened sharks and rays based on fisher ecological knowledge. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract Small‐scale fisheries often lack historical shark and ray catch information, hampering their management. We reconstructed historical catch trends and current fishing pressure by combining local ecological knowledge, satellite‐based vessel counts, and a short‐term landing‐site survey.

High overexploitation risk due to management shortfall in highly traded requiem sharks

open access: yesConservation Letters, 2023
Most of the international trade in fins (and likely meat too) is derived from requiem sharks (family Carcharhinidae), yet trade in only two of the 56 species is currently regulated.
