Spatiotemporal distribution patterns of immature Australasian white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias). [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2020
AbstractIn Australian and New Zealand waters, current knowledge on white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) movement ecology is based on individual tracking studies using relatively small numbers of tags. These studies describe a species that occupies highly variable and complex habitats.

First evidence of white sharks, Carcharodon carcharias, in the tongue of the ocean, central Bahamas

Frontiers in Marine Science
The white shark, Carcharodon carcharias, is an iconic apex predator, playing an important ecological role across its range. Persistent bycatch and overfishing led to white shark declines, but recent studies in the North Western Atlantic (NWA) revealed ...

Mitochondrial genome of an Atlantic white shark (Carcharodon carcharias). [PDF]

Mitochondrial DNA B Resour, 2016
Here we report the first full mitochondrial genome sequence for a white shark caught in the Atlantic Ocean. The mitochondrial genome is 16,745 bp in length and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a non-coding control region. The base composition of this mtDNA lineage is A: 30.7%, C: 26.9%, G: 13.8%, and T: 28.6%.

Trophic position of Otodus megalodon and great white sharks through time revealed by zinc isotopes

Nature Communications, 2022
Here the authors demonstrate the use of zinc isotopes (δ66Zn) to geochemically assess trophic levels in extant and extinct sharks. They show that the Neogene megatooth shark (Otodus megalodon) and the great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) occupied a
