Microsatellite Analyses of Blacktip Reef Sharks (Carcharhinus melanopterus) in a Fragmented Environment Show Structured Clusters [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The population dynamics of shark species are generally poorly described because highly mobile marine life is challenging to investigate. Here we investigate the genetic population structure of the blacktip reef shark (Carcharhinus melanopterus) in French

Observations of sharks (Elasmobranchii) at Europa Island, a remote marine protected area important for shark conservation in the southern Mozambique Channel. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 Sharks have declined worldwide and remote sanctuaries are becoming crucial for shark conservation. The southwest Indian Ocean is a hotspot of both terrestrial and marine biodiversity mostly impacted by anthropogenic damage.

Catch Data Can Unravel Elasmobranch Aggregation Dynamics and Group Behaviours [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionElasmobranchs (i.e., sharks, skates, rays), known for their cognitive abilities and complex behaviours, often form aggregations that are thought to be crucial for their survival and evolutionary success.
