Breeding status and review of conservation of Carcharhinus melanopterus in captivity
Le requin pointe-noire (Carcharhinus melanopterus) est une espèce pélagique fréquentant les eaux tropicales du monde entier. Son élevage est réalisé dans de nombreux aquariums, s’inscrivant dans des programmes de conservation gérés conjointement. Leur but est d’étudier la reproduction de cette espèce en captivité, pour mieux en comprendre les enjeux et

Field Observations of the Behaviour of Blackfin Reef Sharks (Carcharhinus melanopterus)
The chondrichthyan lineage diverged from the osteichthyan line 440 million years ago, resulting in a vast evolutionary gulf between modern elasmobranchs and other vertebrates. Though this has supported the assumption that sharks are ancient, dangerous, and binary-minded, the few ethological studies done have noted intelligent actions including social ...

Acoustic telemetry and network analysis reveal the space use of multiple reef predators and enhance marine protected area design [PDF]
Marine protected areas (MPAs) are commonly employed to protect ecosystems from threats like overfishing. Ideally, MPA design should incorporate movement data from multiple target species to ensure sufficient habitat is protected.
