Using citizen science photographs to identify reproductive events in an oviparous elasmobranch
Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 107, Issue 2, Page 419-430, August 2025.Abstract Identifying critical habitats is important for the effective management of vulnerable species. Critical habitats, such as mating or nursery grounds, support populations during key life stages and help to maximise reproductive output and population growth. In elasmobranchs, mating often happens over a defined season, suggesting sites associated
