Sharks associated with a large sand shoal complex: Community insights from longline and acoustic telemetry surveys.

PLoS ONE, 2023
Offshore sand shoals are a coveted sand source for coastal restoration projects and as sites for wind energy development. Shoals often support unique fish assemblages but their habitat value to sharks is largely unknown due to the high mobility of most ...

Collagen Biomaterials: From Traditional Animal Sources to Marine and Recombinant Alternatives

International Journal of Biomaterials, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in animals and a key biomaterial due to its biocompatibility, biodegradability, and versatile functional properties. Traditionally, collagen has been obtained from land animal tissues such as bovine, porcine, and donkey skin, tendon, and bone.

Fishery of elasmobranchs with some observations on the biology and stock assessment of Carcharhinus limbatus (P. Muller & Henle, 1839) exploited along Malabar coast [PDF]

, 2012
Elasmobranchs are caught in trawls, gillnets and longlines along the Malabar region of Kerala and they are landed almost round the year, accounting less than 1% of the total catch.

Multiple paternity and hybridization in two smooth-hound sharks [PDF]

, 2015
Multiple paternity appears to be a common trait of elasmobranch mating systems, with its occurrence likely driven by convenience, due to females seeking to minimize the stress of male harassment.

Defining distribution and habitat use of west‐central Florida’s coastal sharks through a research and education program

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Identifying critical habitat for highly mobile species such as sharks is difficult, but essential for effective management and conservation. In regions where baseline data are lacking, non‐traditional data sources have the potential to increase ...

Inter-oceanic divergence and speciation in Carcharhinus plumbeus, Carcharhinus limbatus and Carcharhinus falciformis inferred from mitochondrial DNA sequence

, 2020
Phylogeographic patterns were examined for two species of shark that are circumglobally distributed (Carcharhinus plumbeus and Carcharhinus limbatus), but restricted to coastal waters and a third species (Carcharhinus falciformis) that is circumglobally distributed, but oceanic.

Conservation Biology of Elasmobranchs [PDF]

, 1993
Elasmobranchs are vital and valuable components of the marine biota. From an ecological perspective they occupy the role of top predators within marine food webs, providing a regulatory control that helps balance the ecosystem.
