Long-term movement patterns and trophic ecology of blacktip reef sharks (Carcharhinus melanopterus) at Palmyra Atoll

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2010
article i nfo Animal movements, residence times, and subsequently foraging strategies, should vary with habitat quality. We used acoustic and satellite telemetry, as well as stable isotopes, to look at movement patterns, macro- scale habitat use, and trophic ecology of blacktip reef sharks, Carcharhinus melanopterus, between two lagoons (eastern and ...

On the gestation period of the blackfin reef shark, Carcharhinus melanopterus, in waters off Moorea, French Polynesia

Marine Biology, 2005
Underwater visual and photographic observations, over a four year period, monitored the presence of mating wounds on female blackfin reef shark, Carcharhinus melanopterus. Mating begins in November and continues until the end of March as each female follows her own temporal cycle.

A tale of two reef sharks: evolutionary history of Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos and similarities with Carcharhinus melanopterus as revealed by population genomics data

We investigated the evolutionary history of the grey reef shark (Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos) in the Indo-Pacific (IP) by harnessing the power of thousands of RAD-seq loci sequenced in 175 individuals across its range. We bring strong evidences of the occurrence of a range expansion (RE) originating close to the Indo-Australian Archipelago (IAA) from ...

Lipid contents of marine fish: Carcharhinus melanopterus (Black Shark) and Lutjanus johnii (Hira).

Pakistan journal of pharmaceutical sciences, 2006
Total lipid composition of liver oil of two marine fish Carcharhinus melanopterus (Black Shark) and Lutjanus johnii (Hira) was determined. The fatty acid contents of total liver lipids were identified through gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. It was found that fatty acid methyl eaten mainly consist of myristic, pentadecylic, palmitic, stearic acids

Determining Blacktip Reef Shark ( Carcharhinus melanopterus ) Paternity Using Novel Microsatellite Loci for Studbook Utilization

Zoo Biology
ABSTRACT From May 2016 until December 2018, a group of blacktip reef sharks ( Carcharhinus melanopterus ) at Shedd Aquarium successfully produced six litters. These multiple successful breeding events provided the opportunity to develop and characterize microsatellite loci ...

Abundance and Response of Carcharhinus melanopterus to Feeding Stimuli in Mo’orea, French Polynesia

2002
The blacktip reef shark, Carcharhinus melanopterus, was observed in response to feeding stimuli in Mo’orea, French Polynesia. Natural abundance, abundance in response to feeding stimuli and abundance prior to tour boat arrival were observed at two established sites(1,2), and a third newly established site(3). The arrival time of C.

Connectivity and population structure of blacktip reef sharks, Carcharhinus melanopterus, in two islands in Terengganu, Malaysia

2016
In the last decades sharks and their population dynamics are increasingly studied because of their importance for the ecosystems and their high sensitivity to overfishing and anthropological activities, due to their long gestation period, slow reproducing rate, slow growth, and high level of maternal investment (Dulvy et al., 2014).
