Shedding light on the parasite communities and diet of the deep‐sea shark Deania profundorum (Smith & Radcliffe, 1912) (Squaliform: Centrophoridae) from the Avilés Canyon (southern Bay of Biscay)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Deep‐sea elasmobranchs are less resilient to the increasing scale of anthropogenic impacts such as fisheries, owing to their life‐history traits. The necessity for proper management measures is hampered by the scant knowledge on these taxa and their biology. Here we provide the first comprehensive insight into the parasite infracommunities and

Dental Morphology, Palaeoecology and Palaeobiogeographic Significance of a New Species of Requiem Shark (Genus Carcharhinus) from the Lower Miocene of Peru (East Pisco Basin, Chilcatay Formation)

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Nowadays, the requiem sharks comprise one of the most diverse and widespread families of selachians, i.e., Carcharhinidae. Among the carcharhinids, the genus Carcharhinus has the largest number of living species, namely, at least 35.

The Overlooked Threat of Global Warming on Elasmobranch Fertility

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 1, Page 41-55, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate change is increasingly recognised as a critical threat to global biodiversity, yet its impacts on reproductive processes remain poorly understood in many marine taxa. Elasmobranchs (sharks, skates and rays) represent a particularly vulnerable group due to their peculiar life histories, low fecundity, and diverse reproductive modes.

Hopping Hotspots Shaped the Global Biogeography and Diversification of Orectolobiform Sharks

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim In marine biogeography, many clades exhibit their greatest species richness in the Central Indo‐Pacific region, which includes the Indo‐Australian Archipelago. However, there is no consensus that this region was the ancestral cradle of clade's species richness.

Measuring juvenile habitat quality for fishes and invertebrates

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2346-2395, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Identifying the role of marine and estuarine habitats in supporting fish and invertebrate populations during vulnerable juvenile life stages is essential to achieve effective conservation and fisheries management. There remains general agreement that: (i) the quality of juvenile habitat is best measured as the contribution of juveniles to ...

Rapid DNA/eDNA‐Based ID Tools for Improved Chondrichthyan Monitoring and Management

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 8, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Rapid DNA/eDNA‐based ID tools, which detect specific genetic patterns without requiring sequencing, are essential for biodiversity and wildlife trade monitoring, particularly for species of conservation concern. However, the practical application of these methods remains limited by the availability of standardised protocols, accessibility of ...

The Motion Picture: Leveraging Movement to Enhance AI Object Detection in Ecology

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2025.
As AI methods become increasingly popular to automatically analyse ecology data, we investigate using movement information as a means to improve traditional object detection approaches (which are limited to static image information only) on over 35,000 annotated images from 1480 terrestrial, marine and freshwater locations, the most extensive ...

Erection of Euterranova n. gen. and Neoterranova n. gen. (Nematoda, Anisakidae), with the description of E. dentiduplicata n. sp. and new records of two other anisakid nematodes from sharks off New Caledonia

open access: yesParasite, 2020
Helminthological examinations of three species of sharks, Galeocerdo cuvier, Triaenodon obesus (both Carcharhinidae, Carcharhiniformes) and Stegostoma fasciatum (Stegostomatidae, Orectolobiformes) from New Caledonian waters, carried out during 2003–2005,
