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 ...

First fossils of the extant blacktip shark Carcharhinus limbatus from Europe and the Mediterranean Basin

Neues Jahrbuch für Geologie und Paläontologie - Abhandlungen, 2021
Here we report on two fossil teeth attributed to the blacktip shark Carcharhinus limbatus (Elasmobranchii: Carcharhiniformes: Carcharhinidae) from lower Pliocene (ca. 5.1–4.5 Ma) marine deposits of Tuscany (central Italy). A survey of the palaeoichthyological literature and online resources reveals that fossils of C.

Carcharhinus limbatus Müller & Henle 1839

2019
Carcharhinus cf. limbatus (Figs. 4A, 14 E–H) Two specimens of blacktip sharks were examined, one each from Point Pedro's Munai (SL-38) and Kottadi (SL-52) markets in the Northern Province. Following Naylor et al. (2012a), we refer to this species as Carcharhinus cf.

Agonistic Displays in the Blacktip Shark (Carcharhinus limbatus)

Copeia, 2000
Abstract Agonistic displays in the Blacktip Shark (Carcharhinus limbatus) were triggered by divers slowly ascending to the surface. Two locomotor elements, rolling and tilting, were identified. They closely resemble the behavior patterns of sharks trying to shake off Sharksuckers (Echeneis naucrates).

DIONCHUSPOSTONCOMIRACIDIA (MONOGENEA: DIONCHIDAE) FROM THE SKIN OF BLACKTIP SHARKS,CARCHARHINUS LIMBATUS(CARCHARHINIDAE)

Journal of Parasitology, 2000
Postoncomiracidia of Dionchus sp. are described from specimens collected from the skin of 2 blacktip sharks Carcharhinus limbatus, captured in the northern Gulf of Mexico. The parasites resemble nonciliated oncomiracidia hatched from eggs laid by Dionchus sp.

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.

Liver lipids of Indian and Atlantic Ocean spinnerCarcharhinus brevipinnaand blacktipCarcharhinus limbatussharks

African Journal of Marine Science, 2011
Shark liver oils are rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, especially the n3 moieties. Data on the liver fatty acids of sharks from African waters, however, are limited. Liver samples from sharks from the western Indian Ocean off the east coast of South Africa and those from the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico were examined.

Diel movements of the blacktip shark (Carcharhinus limbatus) in a Caribbean nursery

Environmental Biology of Fishes, 2018
The blacktip shark (Carcharhinus limbatus) is a common coastal species in tropical and subtropical waters around the world. To examine the fine-scale movement ecology of this species in a Caribbean nursery, 17 neonate blacktip sharks were acoustically tagged in May, 2012 and tracked for one year in Coral Bay, St John, USVI.
