Tooth mineralization and histology patterns in extinct and extant snaggletooth sharks, Hemipristis (Carcharhiniformes, Hemigaleidae)-Evolutionary significance or ecological adaptation? [PDF]
Shark jaws exhibit teeth that are arranged into distinct series and files and display great diversities in shapes and structures, which not only is related to their function (grasping, cutting, crushing) during feeding, but also bear a strong ...

Retention Bans Are Beneficial but Insufficient to Stop Shark Overfishing
ABSTRACT Sharks are among the most threatened groups of exploited fishes, comprising common bycatch across many fisheries. Management efforts intended to safeguard threatened species have increasingly focused on retention bans to reduce bycatch mortality. However, the population effects of such measures remain unevaluated across species.

Dental crown morphological variation and heterodonty in carcharhiniform sharks
Abstract Elasmobranch teeth are highly mineralized structures that constitute the majority of the fossil record for this group. Despite their taxonomic and evolutionary significance, detailed descriptions of dental morphology remain scarce.

Predicting time‐at‐depth weighted biodiversity patterns for sharks of the North Pacific
Depth is a fundamental and universal driver of ocean biogeography but it is unclear how the biodiversity patterns of larger, more mobile organisms change as a function of depth. Here, we developed a predictive biogeography model to explore how information of mobile species' depth preferences influence biodiversity patterns.

The goal of this study was to leverage existing survey technology to design and test an eDNA sampler that captures an integrated eDNA sample over the length of a deep‐water transect. We provide a biological interpretation of the resulting data, demonstrating the usefulness of such technology to understand the ocean environments, using fish species as ...

PROBLEMATIC IDENTITY OF THE SMALLEYE HAMMERHEAD (CARCHARHINIFORMES: SPHYRNA) OCCURRING IN COLOMBIA
The presence of Sphyrna tudes in Colombian waters is supported by a 506 mm total length male collected in the southernmost corner of the Caribbean Sea, the mouth of Atrato river. A short discussion on the confusing taxonomic and nomenclatural history of the smalleye hammerhead is included.

Abstract The apparent lack of physical barriers in the marine realm has created the conception that many groups have a constant gene flow. However, changes in ocean circulation patterns, glacial cycles, temperature, and salinity gradients are responsible for vicariant events in many fish species, including sharks.
