Comparison of the reproductive ecology of two sympatric blacktip sharks (Carcharhinus limbatus and Carcharhinus tilstoni) off north-eastern Australia with species identification inferred from vertebral counts

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, 2012
Precaudal vertebral counts were used to distinguish between 237 morphologically similar Carcharhinus limbatus and Carcharhinus tilstoni and were congruent with differences in reproductive ecology between the species.

Mercury in neonatal and juvenile blacktip sharks (Carcharhinus limbatus). Part I: exposure assessment

Ecotoxicology, 2021
Elasmobranchs are exposed to mercury (Hg) through a variety of pathways in the environment. This study assessed maternal offloading and diet-based Hg exposure for neonatal and juvenile blacktip sharks (Carcharhinus limbatus) from Charlotte Harbor located along southwest Florida's coast, a recognized Hg hotspot.

Mercury in neonatal and juvenile blacktip sharks (Carcharhinus limbatus). Part II: Effects assessment

Ecotoxicology, 2021
As apex predators, blacktip sharks (Carcharhinus limbatus) are highly susceptible to biomagnified mercury (Hg) particularly in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM), which is known to contain fishes and invertebrates with elevated Hg levels. Blacktip sharks occur in the GOM year-round and are heavily fished both commercially and recreationally, but little is known ...

Scaling of bite force in the blacktip shark Carcharhinus limbatus

Zoology, 2006
Although bite force is a frequently studied performance measure of feeding ecology, changes in bite force over ontogeny have rarely been investigated. Biting by the blacktip shark Carcharhinus limbatus was theoretically modeled over ontogeny to investigate the scaling of bite force, the morphological basis of the observed scaling relationship, the ...

Delineation of blacktip shark (Carcharhinus limbatus) nursery habitats in the north‐western Gulf of Mexico

Journal of Fish Biology, 2022
AbstractCoevolution with predators leads to the use of low‐risk habitats by many prey species, which promotes survival during early developmental phases. These nurseries are valued by conservation and management agencies because of their contributions to adult populations.

Weak population structure of the Spot-tail shark Carcharhinus sorrah and the Blacktip shark C. limbatus along the coasts of the Arabian Peninsula, Pakistan, and South Africa [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2018
The increase in demand for shark meat and fins has placed shark populations worldwide under high fishing pressure. In the Arabian region, the spot-tail shark Carcharhinus sorrah and the Blacktip shark Carcharhinus limbatus are among the most exploited ...
